Shares of NuScale Power (SMR) surged 5.21% in the pre-market trading session on Tuesday, following the company's announcement of Alan Boeckmann as the new non-executive chairman of its board of directors.
NuScale Power, a leading developer of small modular reactor (SMR) nuclear technology, announced that Boeckmann, who has been a board member since 2020, will replace Jim Hackett as the non-executive chairman effective Wednesday.

As the first and only SMR design certified by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, NuScale is well-positioned to provide carbon-free energy solutions for various applications, including electrical generation, data centers, district heating, and desalination.
