CEO and CFO of Fermi America step down
On Friday, two of the four cofounders at Fermi America unexpectedly exited their roles at the company. Those were Toby Neugebauer, former CEO and chairman of the board of directors, and Miles Everson, former chief financial officer.
While both Neugebauer and Everson will still serve on the board of directors, this reshuffling has raised questions regarding the overall stability of Fermi’s flagship Project Matador, which aims to deploy four AP1000s on a massive data center campus in Texas.

Established in 1957, University of Tennessee’s Department of Nuclear Engineering (UTNE) was the first NE department in the country and continues to be one of the most prestigious in the United States. With a brand-new building hosting faculty staff and students, along with a myriad of collaboration areas and 26 new nuclear engineering laboratories, UTNE provides a welcoming and supportive environment for all.
Our faculty is internationally recognized for excellence in research and teaching, and our advanced research programs are enhanced by close ties with Oak Ridge National Laboratory, the Y-12 Nuclear Security Complex, UCOR, at the East Tennessee Technology Park (ETTP), and more than one hundred nuclear related companies located within fifty miles of Knoxville.
East Tennessee may have the largest concentration of nuclear industry anywhere in the world and is therefore an ideal place to come for nuclear education.
Our PhD program is the largest in the country and our graduate program consistently ranked as one of the top in the nation by U.S. News and World Report.
