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.

The neutron scattering cross section of U233 has been measured relative to that of copper below 20 ev on the Materials Testing Reactor fast chopper. The observed scattering cross section is adequately described by previously obtained multilevel parameters, which give a value for the potential scattering of 12.6 b. The data are not of high enough quality to permit the assigning of spins to the resonances.
