Terra Innovatum Achieves Key NRC Licensing Milestone, Delivers All 18 SOLO™ PSAR Chapters for Readiness Review as it Advances Toward 2027 First Reactor Deployment

NEW YORK and PITTSBURGH, Nov. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Terra Innovatum Global N.V. (NASDAQ: NKLR) (“Terra Innovatum” or the “Company”), developer of the SOLO™ Micro-Modular Reactor, today announced that it has now provided all 18 chapters of its Preliminary Safety Analysis Report (“PSAR”) to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (“NRC”) for readiness review.

The milestone follows the Company’s October announcement that 14 of the 18 chapters had been shared with NRC staff and marks another significant step toward formal submission of its Construction Permit Application (“CPA”).

Terra Innovatum continues to advance multiple workstreams, including NRC licensing activities, reactor engineering, component procurement, and manufacturing preparations, supporting its targeted first-of-a-kind (“FOAK”) deployment in 2027. In parallel, the Company is expanding commercial development efforts to engage prospective customers and respond to growing demand for reliable, scalable power.

Importantly, Terra Innovatum believes it already has the capital necessary to fund all remaining activities through its planned FOAK reactor deployment, providing a strong financial foundation for continued execution of its commercialization strategy.

“We continue to execute against the milestones we’ve established, demonstrating consistent progress toward bringing SOLO™ to market,” said Marco Cherubini, Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Terra Innovatum. “Providing all 18 PSAR chapters to the NRC for readiness review is another important achievement for our team. We are not simply progressing through regulatory milestones. We are building the supply chain, advancing manufacturing readiness and preparing for deployment at the same time. This coordinated approach, together with our fully funded path toward first reactor deployment in 2027, positions Terra Innovatum at the forefront of the microreactor industry’s transition from development to commercialization. We believe SOLO™ will be among the first commercially available next-generation microreactors introduced to the marketplace, addressing the growing demand for reliable, scalable power across AI and data centers, industrial operations, critical infrastructure and healthcare.”

The NRC readiness review is an assessment of the completeness and quality of the Company’s materials ahead of formal CPA submission. Terra Innovatum maintains regular technical interactions with NRC staff and stands ready to address any comments or requests arising during the review process.

“Our engagement with the NRC continues at a constructive and steady pace, supported by regular technical interactions and a focus on a thorough, efficient review process,” said Cesare Frepoli, Ph.D., Co-Founder, Chief Operating Officer, and Director of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs at Terra Innovatum. “Providing all 18 PSAR chapters represents another important step in our licensing journey, and we look forward to continuing our work with NRC staff as we advance toward formal submission of the Construction Permit Application.”

In parallel, the Company continues to advance engineering, quality assurance and licensing activities in support of the CPA and subsequent stages of SOLO™’s development. These efforts are progressing alongside ongoing component procurement, manufacturing preparations and first-of-a-kind deployment planning, reflecting Terra Innovatum’s integrated approach to bringing SOLO™ to market. Together, these activities reinforce the Company’s commitment to translating its technology into commercially deployable nuclear power solutions, with its first SOLO™ reactor targeted for deployment in 2027.
