Aegis Critical Energy Defence (CSE: QESS, OTCQB: QESSF, FSE: JG6) announced a $480,000, multi-year Mitacs Accelerate research collaboration with Ontario Tech University to develop and test a digital-twin-enabled control platform for safe, secure operation of small and micro modular reactor (SMR/MMR) hybrid systems with battery storage in marine environments.
The project will model integrated SMR/MMR-battery architectures, design reactor-aware energy and power management, develop cyber-secure control layers, address transient load management and frequency stabilization, and progress to hardware-in-the-loop testing. Aegis receives cost-shared, non-dilutive funding, 36 internship units of embedded graduate researchers, and a milestone-driven program. The platform is intended to be adaptable to ports, AI data centres, Arctic and remote communities, shipping and disaster-response applications. The research agreement is currently in progress and will be finalized before project execution.
