Urenco USA has completed 75% of its capacity expansion at the National Enrichment Facility, adding new uranium enrichment cascades and planning further construction to increase production capacity up to 7 million SWU by 2036, supporting US and allied nuclear industries.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Energy Storage.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You should track Urenco's new enrichment capacity as it reshapes nuclear fuel supply in the US and allied nations, opening opportunities for suppliers in advanced reactors. This ramp-up shortens timelines to access larger enrichment capacity and fuels demand in nuclear infrastructure.
