HALEU is urgently needed for next-gen nuclear energy, says former SpaceX engineer
0
HALEU is uranium enriched to between 5% and 20%, which backers say has the potential to make new high-tech reactors more efficient.
Former SpaceX engineer Scott Nolan, CEO of startup General Matter, is on a mission to help end Russia’s monopoly on a type of more-enriched nuclear fuel by producing it at commercial scale in the United States and slashing its costs.
