Hadron Energy advances its Halo reactor plans
Hadron Energy has completed its previously announced business combination with GigCapital7 Corp. The corporate combination resulted in Hadron, which is developing a microreactor called Halo, receiving a total cash value of approximately $31 million from the GigCapital7 trust account and other financing, as well as public market access to support the company’s plans to see the Halo MMR through design, regulation, and customer-deployment.
Hadron has also signed a uranium conversion services agreement with ConverDyn, the Solstice Advanced Materials–General Atomics joint venture behind Solstice’s uranium hexafluoride conversion facility in Metropolis, Ill.
