NuScale's VOYGR SMR plant is a very "modular" system designed to easily scale from small to medium commercial applications.<ref>{{cite web |title=VOYGR Plant Models |url=https://www.nuscalepower.com/en/Products/VOYGR-SMR-Plants |website=nuscalepower |publisher=NuScale Power |access-date=16 December 2023}}</ref> The VOYGR relies on light water and works individually or in concert as teams of up to 12 modules. ItsIn its latest iteration, the maximum output for one module is 77 MWe. As a 12-module system, the VOYGR delivers up to 924 MWe. Plant refueling is required once every 12 years. NuScale is credited with the invention of the SMR, along with researchers at [[Oregon State University]].
