Nucular might be an option. ID is home to a couple of labs where a private power generating reactor could be built.

INL has broached the topic of building the SMR manufacturing facility in Pocatello (real jobs) and locating an operating SMR in Pocatello to provide power. That would address the power and noise issue. The risk of contamination of the aquifer and "heat island" issues would still be a concern.
