California-based Oklo and Maryland-based Centrus Announce Joint Venture to Produce Nuclear Fuel

Oklo, a nuclear fuels company, and Centrus, a uranium enrichment company, have begun discussions on forming a joint venture to develop a precursor to fuel-grade uranium called deconversion. This process converts enriched uranium into usable fuel for small reactors, which Oklo plans to use in its proposed reactors. The partnership aims to enhance competitiveness and simplify fuel shipping for the entire industry.
