This week, we had the pleasure of hosting the US DOE National Reactor Innovation Center for the Conceptual Design Review of our Pylon D1 nuclear system! The team reviewed the conceptual design for the Pylon D1 reactor that is being developed for National Reactor Innovation Center's (NRIC) DOME test bed and toured USNC's Pilot Fuel Manufacturing (PFM) facility in Oak Ridge, TN. We are excited and proud to reach this milestone and look forward to continuing this program with NRIC as we develop the Pylon transportable reactor system.

USNC also had the pleasure of hosting Magnus Mori and Alison Poortman of Urenco USA on Tuesday at our PFM facility in Oak Ridge, TN. USNC and Urenco USA previously signed an enrichment services supply agreement (Link: https://lnkd.in/gfved9Pj) as part of the fuel supply program for USNC’s Micro-Modular™ Reactor (MMR®). In this visit, USNC provided an overview of our fuel manufacturing technologies and toured our pilot facility where we are making TRISO and FCM fuel for USNC’s family of nuclear systems. This visit also helped further strengthen our relationship with this vital partner who is solving some of the key challenges on the front end of the nuclear fuel cycle. USNC looks forward to continuing this partnership to support near-term deployment of our nuclear systems.

It was an absolute pleasure to host Governor of Alaska, Mike Dunleavy, at our Pilot Fuel Manufacturing facility in Oak Ridge, TN and to hear his insights on the energy needs and opportunities in the great state of Alaska. We had the opportunity to showcase the large scale TRISO and FCM fuel manufacturing technologies to the Governor. Our Micro Modular Reactor, when fueled with FCM, are perfectly suited to meet the critical and clean energy needs around the globe. RELIABLE ENERGY ANYWHERE
