How OKLO and Centrus Aim to Fix the Nuclear Fuel Bottleneck

OKLO and Centrus announced an exploratory partnership to develop a HALEU deconversion venture aimed at strengthening the U.S. nuclear fuel supply chain for next‑generation reactors. The initiative targets domestic availability of high-assay low-enriched uranium to reduce reliance on foreign suppliers and support advanced reactor deployment; the announcement is early-stage and unlikely to have immediate market-moving effects.
