How to fund/build a Small Modular Reactor (SMR)

I'm curious to see if anyone has done any research into Small Modular Reactors. With the NRC certifying the first design, I wonder how difficult it would be to fund and build. I'd love to see it in SLC as the air quality in the valley, in particular, is really bad in the winter. I wonder if this might help cut that down to less toxic levels. Thoughts? Would love to hear what anyone else has heard. I'm in the research phase at the moment.
Thanks!

What an interesting question. Perhaps you can reach out to someone at NuScale since this seems like very specific knowledge is required. Good luck!
