What Westinghouse does

Westinghouse Electric Corporation is a dual-segment technology enterprise operating since 1886, headquartered in Cranberry Township, Pennsylvania. Its nuclear energy division — the largest in the United States — designs, engineers, and licenses the AP1000 Generation III+ pressurized water reactor and the eVinci microreactor, supplies nuclear fuel, and delivers long-term service contracts to government utilities and defense customers globally. The company also operates a consumer and industrial products division, marketed under the legacy Westinghouse brand through westinghouse.com and major retailers (Amazon, Walmart), offering kitchen appliances, ceiling fans, lighting, air comfort products, generators, power stations, water heaters, and consumer electronics across price points ranging from sub-$30 accessories to $1,199 portable power stations.

The business generates revenue through multiple streams: multi-year, quote-based nuclear construction and licensing contracts (exemplified by an $80 billion financing partnership with Brookfield Asset Management and Cameco Corporation for 10 AP1000 reactors), nuclear fuel hardware sales and technology licensing to international partners (Ukraine, Poland, Bulgaria, Slovakia, UAE, Japan), and high-volume consumer hardware sales through direct-to-consumer e-commerce and retail distribution. Go-to-market is hybrid: enterprise field sales for nuclear projects with government and utility customers, and direct-to-consumer plus retail for consumer products. Proprietary technology platforms — Bertha AI, Hive AI, and the WNEXUS 3D digital twin, developed in partnership with Google Cloud — target construction optimization, addressing cost structures where construction represents roughly 60% of reactor total price.

Ownership is held jointly by Brookfield Asset Management and Cameco Corporation following a 2023 acquisition, with the U.S. Department of Commerce having subsequently taken an approximately 20% equity stake as part of a national nuclear energy initiative. The company employs more than 10,000 people, maintains engineering and R&D operations in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania and Warner Robins, Georgia, and is led by CEO Dan Sumner (appointed April 2026). International nuclear projects span Poland (3.75 GW Baltic coast plant with Bechtel), Ukraine (fuel assembly plant in Mykolaiv), Bulgaria (Kozloduy units 7&8), Slovakia, UAE, and Japan.
