SuperCritical Materials has licensed patented uranium extraction technology from Battelle/PNNL to extract uranium from seawater at industrial scale, positioning itself to supply fuel for accelerating advanced reactor deployments and addressing the US domestic uranium supply bottleneck.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Clean Energy and Energy Storage.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
Advanced reactors are coming online faster than the fuel supply chain can support them—and SuperCritical now owns the extraction tech the industry will need to buy. If you build reactor components, cooling systems, marine equipment, or materials for seawater processing, you're upstream of a critical bottleneck that just got a proven buyer.
