Bobby Gallagher

CEO & CTO Founder · Deployable Energy
Bobby is a serial deep tech energy entrepreneur, inventor, former offshore oilfield engineer, and former Army officer building the next wave of deployable fission power. He is the Founder, CEO & CTO of Deployable Energy, now emerging from stealth with the Unity Nuclear Battery—a 1 MW, factory-built, plug-and-play microreactor that fits inside a 20-ft ISO container. Using standard light-water reactor fuel and materials, Unity targets diesel-beating cost and performance, scales from 1 to thousands of megawatts, and offers >5 year refueling intervals to deliver resilient, emissions-free power for data centers, mining, oil & gas, remote communities, maritime operations, and dual-use missions. Deployable Energy is Bobby’s second hard-tech venture. He previously founded Kinetic Pressure Control, scaled it into a global leader in pressure-control safety, which achieved a nine-figure exit—advancing technologies aimed at preventing disasters like Deepwater Horizon. Named on 15+ patents and experienced across five continents, Bobby bridges investors, regulators, end users, and engineers to turn new tech into fieldable capability. Based in Houston, he’s a father of three who enjoys BJJ and time in the water or mountains.
