Securing America's Energy Future with Domestic Uranium Enrichment

This brief discusses the critical need to increase domestic enrichment capacity to enable the production of high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) and reduce U.S. dependency on international entities in the nuclear fuel supply chain. It discusses the funding Congress has provided to the Department of Energy (DOE) to accomplish this goal, and the need for DOE to accelerate its efforts to partner with private industry and implement their HALEU availability program.
