Paragon is actively involved in maintaining and upgrading equipment in these vital facilities, which are key to the research and testing of new fuels and materials. The ATR and more than two dozen other training and test reactors throughout the country support the advancement of carbon-free nuclear power in the U.S. and abroad.
