Front-end nuclear fuel supply cooperation: Turning allied interdependence into strategic advantage
The global nuclear revival, which is fueled by unprecedented demand for firm, affordable, dispatchable power for artificial intelligence and data center build-out, energy security imperatives, and climate commitments, has exposed a structural reality of the Western fuel cycle: No single allied nation currently possesses the full suite of front-end capabilities. From mining through conversion, enrichment, fabrication, and the emerging deconversion and metallization steps required for reactor fuels, capability is distributed across Canada, France, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States (collectively, the “Sapporo Five”), as well as a small group of close partners.
2023 ANS Student Conference Speaker
Jeremy graduated with a B.S. in Nuclear, Plasma, and Radiological Engineering from UIUC in 2018, and is now a graduate student studying plasma processing under Professor David Ruzic. He has been involved in ANS throughout his college career, serving at both the local and national level. As an undergraduate, Jeremy served as the External Vice President and President of the UIUC ANS chapter. In graduate school, Jeremy has continued his involvement through mentorship, participation in the student sections committee of ANS, and most recently in the planning and hosting of the 2022 ANS Student Conference as the technical co-chair. After his graduate degree Jeremy aspires to stay in academia as a professor so he can continue to engage with students and the nuclear community as a whole.
