SMRX – The Game Changer in Energy Generation
SMRX consists of DUALstorePLUS and ADES. With ADES, we are developing a forward-looking energy source with zero CO2 emissions and an extremely low risk profile. Thanks to its modular design, ADES will be deployable worldwide and, as an energy building block, offers an answer to the most pressing challenges of the 21st century: climate change, energy supply, and security!

Minimal installation & maintenance effort
Supplementing renewable energies
Stabilizing function to supplement wind and solar energy.
MAXIMUM SAFETY THROUGH INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY
ON/OFF switch
ADES features a passively safe ON/OFF control unit.
No critical chain reaction
ADES operates subcritically. When the injector excites the thorium, a reaction occurs – but not a critical chain reaction – which makes ADES far safer than conventional nuclear power plants. No risk of explosion, as there is no overpressure and no water/steam.
Responsibility for the future
Unlike conventional reactors, SMRX produces no transuranic waste. In the loop, we use thorium instead of uranium, so no plutonium and no elements that remain radioactive for millennia are produced. The only residual materials are short-lived fission products.
KI-gestützte Optimierung
ADES uses AI to adapt its performance to the respective installation site. This ensures that ADES delivers optimal performance in a wide range of environments.
Minimal maintenance
The final ADES module does not require constant maintenance. A Safety Security Environment software ensures secure control. No refueling required for 20 years.
ADES – A Technology Comparison
ADES is not just another reactor concept. It is a fundamentally different approach to nuclear energy – safer, faster to deploy, and free of long-lived radioactive waste. The following comparison illustrates the key structural advantages over conventional technologies:
| Feature | ADES | Conventional nuclear | Conventional SMR |
|---|---|---|---|
| Core meltdown possible | No | Yes | Partly |
| CO₂ emissions | No | No | No |
| Containerized / mobile | Yes | No | Partly |
| Fuel replacement | every 20 years | regularly | regularly |
| Long-lived nuclear waste | No | Yes | Yes |
| Critical chain reaction | No | Yes | Yes |
This structural profile eliminates the most critical risks associated with nuclear energy and creates a fundamentally accelerated regulatory pathway – a decisive advantage in time-to-market.
Fusion of 4 core components
Injector (accelerator)
Compact 8 m unit – generates neutrons to initiate and control the thorium reaction
Thorium molten-salt loop
Thorium and molten salt circulate simultaneously as fuel and coolant
HTHX (heat exchanger)
Transfers heat to the energy conversion system
Containment & shielding
Isolation and shielding ensure safe operation
Since ADES is not based on a self-sustaining critical chain reaction, we see good reasons to believe that the system’s inherent physical properties could support a regulatory approach that is closer to “nuclear-adjacent” technologies than to conventional nuclear reactors.

ADES (Accelerator Driven Energy Source) is a unique combination of molten salt technologies and particle accelerators.The innovative system uses a thorium-based anhydrous primary energy cycle and provides a safe, efficient and CO2-neutral energy source.Here we explain how ADES works in detail.
Transmutation by particle accelerator
The injector is a particle accelerator that transmutes thorium-232 into uranium-233.This process initiates the generation of energy and ensures that the reaction is controlled and safe.
Energy release in the circuit
In the molten salt cycle, uranium-233 splits and releases enormous amounts of energy, reaching temperatures of up to 900°C in the process.This high temperature is essential for the subsequent energy conversion steps.
Efficient heat transfer
First and second level heat exchangers transfer the generated energy either to generate electricity or to produce hydrogen.This efficient heat transfer enables the energy generated to be used in a variety of ways.
Reliable electricity production
In the tertiary cycle, the transferred heat is used to drive a turbine to generate electricity.This process continuously supplies reliable and CO2-neutral electrical energy.
Sustainable hydrogen production
The high temperature of 750 to 900°C also enables the efficient production of hydrogen.This hydrogen can be used for various applications, from industrial production to energy supply.
EFFICIENT ENERGY STORAGE WITH CALSTORE
With our CALstore system, the high-temperature heat generated by ADES, among other things, can be efficiently stored temporarily.CALstore uses advanced high-temperature storage technology to store surplus energy safely and water-free so that it can be accessed at any time when needed.This ensures a continuous and reliable energy supply, regardless of demand.
