Texas Governor Greg Abbott, in his State of the State Address on February 2, 2025, emphasized the importance of nuclear energy for Texas. He said, “It is time for Texas to lead the nuclear power renaissance in the United States.” This statement emphasizes the state's commitment to advancing nuclear technology. It will position Texas as a leader in clean energy innovation. The 2024 Interim Report from the Texas Senate Committee on Water, Agriculture, and Rural Affairs mentioned Natura’s technology as a potential solution to power the state water plan, further validating the significance of these deployments.
The Texas Senate Committee on Water, Agriculture, and Rural Affairs, chaired by Senator Charles Perry, stated in the 2024 Interim Report that Natura's advanced nuclear technology offers a promising solution to the state's water and energy challenges. By integrating desalination with energy production, the new molten salt technology can ensure a sustainable future for Texas.
During the press event at Texas A&M in February, Representative Cody Harris said that advanced nuclear deployments, such as Natura's deployment at the RELLIS, will have a positive impact not only Texas, but the rest of the World as well.
The deployments of advanced nuclear reactors are expected to have a profound impact on local communities. By providing a stable and reliable source of clean energy, these projects will facilitate economic growth and job creation in the regions. The integration of Natura's MSR-100 technology with desalination systems will also address water scarcity. This will ensure that local communities have access to purified water for agricultural and other uses. This dual benefit of energy and water security will improve the quality of life for residents and contribute to the overall sustainability of the regions.
The need for reliable and abundant energy is critical for attracting and supporting business growth in Texas. With the increase of data centers, fabrication, and manufacturing facilities, the demand for electricity in Texas is surging. Texas' business-friendly environment, combined with Natura's advanced nuclear technology, will allow the state to meet this growing demand. By providing a stable and clean source of energy, the deployment of Natura's reactors will support the expansion of data centers and other energy-intensive industries. Driven by economic development, Texas' status will be established as a leader in the 21st-century economy.

Natura Resources LLC is a leading advanced reactor developer who is committed to answering the world's increased demand for reliable energy, medical isotopes, and clean water by developing commercially deployable molten salt reactors. Natura's small modular reactors are liquid-fueled and molten salt-cooled. This increases their efficiency and reduces waste. The Natura MSR-100 reactor being deployed at Abilene Christian University is the first liquid-fueled reactor design to receive a construction permit from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. In less than five years, Natura has established itself as a leading company in the nuclear industry, fueled by a commitment to performance. Natura's leadership team has a track record of revolutionizing the energy industry with innovative technology and tangible results. Natura is privately owned and has secured over seventy-eight million dollars in funding through its first three investment rounds.
