Westinghouse eVinci Microreactor R&D/Manufacturing Facility: A Fusion of Innovation and History

RPA Engineering led the transformation of a historic 82,000 sq. ft. facility into a state-of-the-art research, development, and manufacturing hub for Westinghouse’s eVinci™ Microreactor. This next-generation, micro-modular reactor will provide clean, transportable energy for off-grid communities, remote mining, defense facilities, and data centers. Recognized for its excellence, the project received the Modernization Award from the Engineers’ Society of Western Pennsylvania.

The renovation seamlessly blends modern functionality with the building’s historic character. The redesigned space includes private offices, open workstations, dynamic conference areas, and a rooftop deck, all enhanced by advanced mechanical, electrical, and safety upgrades. The manufacturing and R&D areas were optimized for collaboration, integrating high-tech workspaces, a Design Review Auditorium, and a fully equipped catering cafeteria.

Our fully-integrated engineering design team also provided critical infrastructure enhancements, including HVAC distribution, power upgrades, hazardous material storage solutions, and process utility installations for over 50 pieces of manufacturing equipment. A new switchgear system, standby power generator, and high-temperature process exhaust system ensure efficiency and reliability.

Executed on a fast-tracked timeline, this project required seamless coordination among Westinghouse, JLL, AM Group, Desmone, and multiple contractors. By balancing evolving client needs with rigorous execution, RPA Engineering delivered a high-performance, future-ready workspace that honors the past while driving innovation forward.

Congratulations, Team!!
