Licensing, Safety, and QA Expertise for Advanced Reactor Developers
Gibboney Nuclear helps early-stage reactor teams turn ambitious designs into licensable, buildable, investor-ready nuclear projects.
At Gibboney Nuclear, we help advanced reactor startups strengthen their licensing strategy and achieve faster regulatory approvals. Led by Sarah Gibboney, a nuclear engineer who has designed and licensed seven nuclear reactor designs—two of which are now operating and selling power—and co-authored two advanced reactor Construction Permit Applications, we transform complex DOE and NRC requirements into precise, defensible safety cases. The result: reduced review cycles, lower regulatory uncertainty, and a smoother path from concept to construction.
