Panelists talk domestic enrichment expansion at Global 2026
What fuels the future of nuclear? Whether it is low-enriched uranium, LEU+, or high-assay low-enriched uranium, one of the answers is in the question itself: fuel.
Earlier this week, the American Nuclear Society’s Fuel Cycle & Waste Management Division hosted Global 2026, with the theme of “Deploying Sustainable Nuclear Fuel Cycles.”
During one plenary session, “Fueling the Future of Nuclear,” panelists from Urenco USA, Centrus Energy, General Matter, and Global Laser Enrichment shared with attendees how the companies were contributing to the front end of the fuel cycle—more specifically, by launching or expanding their respective enrichment services.

Advanced Research Projects Agency - Energy (ARPA-E) has sponsored multiple research programs that benefit research and development of advanced reactors. MEITNER and GEMINA programs are two excellent examples among others. These programs further advance the U.S. nuclear energy technologies and increase economic competitiveness of advanced reactors. Thermal-hydraulics research plays an indispensable role in the development, deployment, and operation of advanced nuclear technologies and an important part of these programs. This panel invites panelists to participate in the discussions on the recent status of these ARPA-E supported projects, with the focus on their advances and impacts related to thermal-hydraulics.
