Global Nuclear Fuel-Americas and TerraPower are to build the Natrium Fuel Facility at GNF-A's existing site in North Carolina. The facility is part of a major expansion to GE Hitachi Nuclear ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß's Wilmington operations that will also support commercial deployment of the BWRX-300 small modular reactor.

The Fusion22 conference in the UK was told that there is a huge potential fusion industry and businesses were urged to get involved in the supply chain now.

The interest in small modular reactors means that building the industrial capacity to produce the numbers required is just one of the challenges for companies as they turn their visions into reality, ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß Nuclear Symposium heard.

NuScale Power and Polish copper and silver producer KGHM Polska Miedź SA have signed the first task order and a statement of commencement to begin work under the Early Works Agreement signed by the companies earlier this year. Meanwhile, NuScale has signed a contract for the supply of neutron monitoring equipment for use in its small modular reactor.

Key players from the front end of the fuel cycle came together at ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß Nuclear Symposium 2022 to discuss where they see the pinch points in meeting the needs of expanding nuclear generating capacity to meet decarbonisation goals, and the certainty they need to ensure future needs can be met.

Centrus and GLE have welcomed the USD700 million support package to develop high-assay low-enriched uranium included in the US Inflation Reduction Act to develop the infrastructure needed to fuel next generation of nuclear reactors.

The 25th batch of electrical equipment has been delivered, in 14 trailers, to the construction site of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor in the south of France.

Texas-based Uranium ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß Corp has submitted an offer to supply the US Department of ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß - National Nuclear Security Administration with uranium, in response to a government tender to launch a national reserve of domestically produced U3O8.

China's Nantong CIMC ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß Equipment Co Ltd has won an order for 3000 storage and transport containers for uranium hexafluoride from an undisclosed European customer. It said the order is the largest single order the company has received in the nuclear fuel transport container business to date and "sets a new record for the international nuclear fuel transport container industry".

The upper part of the of the reactor for the first unit at Kursk II has been shipped by the Volgodonsk branch of AEM-technology, which is part of the machine-building division of Rosatom - Atomenergomash.

Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has delivered equipment for confirming and demonstrating the safety of the 'blanket' of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor. The blanket is one of the components that comprises the inner wall of the fusion reactor.

The Atomenergomash factory in Volgodonsk, Russia is manufacturing the bottom of the reactor pressure vessel for Turkey's Akkuyu 4.
