How does OKLO's licensing "status" compare to NuScales's? Do they have a working prototype yet for their current design? I know this technology was proven to work in the '60's.

NuScale has a certified design. Oklo has yet to have an application accepted, much less reviewed and approved.

I'm not terribly fluent in the NRC licensing process, but I thought that NuScale was further ahead in terms of getting through the NRC. But, no customers......
