NEW YORK, May 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Terra Innovatum Global N.V. (NASDAQ: NKLR) (“Terra” or the “Company”), developer of the SOLO™ Micro-Modular Reactor,  today announced that its wholly owned affiliate, Terra Innovatum S.r.L. has signed an agreement with SPG Dry Cooling for the supply of an Air-Cooled Condenser (ACC) to support the first-of-a-kind (FOAK) deployment of the SOLO™ microreactor. <img alt="20260518 NKLR SPG Dry Cooling - Image" src="https://ml-eu.globenewswire.com/Resource/Download/828ba825-25af-43dd-9031-4901de5c5229/20260518-nklr-spg-dry-cooling-image.png" data-dpi="120" data-caption="The Air-Cooled Condenser is a critical component of the power conversion system, enabling efficient heat rejection without reliance on water-based cooling. " data-filename="20260518 NKLR SPG Dry Cooling - Image.png" /> The Air-Cooled Condenser is a critical component of the power conversion system, enabling efficient heat rejection without reliance on water-based cooling. This capability significantly expands deployment flexibility across water-constrained and remote environments, while supporting the scalability of the SOLO™ platform. This agreement paves the way for potential future collaboration for the Supply of SPG Dry Cooling`s standardized BoxAir solution to enable efficient fleet scale deployment. “This agreement reflects the realities of deploying advanced energy systems at scale,” said Alessandro Petruzzi, Co-Founder, and Chief Executive Officer of Terra Innovatum. “By eliminating dependence on water-based cooling, the SOLO™ platform can be deployed across a significantly broader set of environments, unlocking global demand. At the same time, we are aligning with proven industrial partners to build a supply chain designed for standardization, and repeatable deployment.” Torsten Andersch, Executive Vice-President of SPG Dry Cooling, added, “As a global leader in air-cooled condenser systems, we leverage decades of expertise in delivering water-free heat rejection solutions across the most demanding environments. We are proud to support Terra Innovatum in the FOAK deployment of the SOLO™ microreactor and to play a key role in enabling water-efficient nuclear energy solutions.” This Supply agreement further strengthens Terra Innovatum’s balance-of-plant strategy and supports its transition from FOAK execution to scalable NOAK commercialization.
