Here is a recap of recent industry happenings:
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.
The Naval Nuclear Laboratory consists of personnel at the Bettis and Knolls Atomic Power Laboratories, Kenneth A. Kesselring Site, Naval Reactors Facility, and NPTU Charleston Facility and has been supporting the Nation since 1946. With nearly 8,000 engineers, scientists, technicians, and support personnel, our mission is to develop the most advanced naval nuclear propulsion technology and to provide technical support for the continued safe, reliable operation of all existing naval reactors.
