      Deep Isolation to license its waste disposal technology to Amentum

      Deep Isolation announced that it has signed a memorandum of agreement with engineering services company Amentum to further the commercialization of Deep Isolation’s nuclear waste storage and disposal technology around the world. The initial targets for joint work include locations in Europe and the Pacific that represent a combined market for geologic disposal of spent fuel and high-level waste worth more than $30 billion, the company said.

U.S. Nuclear Power Plants: Clean Energy Assets at Risk

December 14, 2021|12:00–1:00PM (1:00–2:00PM EST)

All UsersAvailable to All Users



In the last decade, almost a dozen U.S. nuclear power plants have prematurely retired. As clean energy commitments expand globally and nationally, the value of existing nuclear power plants and the numerous closures seem diametrically opposed. An expert panel offered diverse perspectives on recent successes and what challenges the nuclear industry faces next in the ongoing fight to preserve the existing fleet of plants in the U.S.
