The Department of Energy (DOE) has issued a request for proposals (RFP) for uranium enrichment services to help establish a reliable domestic supply of fuels using high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU). Currently, HALEU is not commercially available from US-based suppliers, and boosting domestic supply is seen as vital for the development and deployment of advanced reactors in the US.

Nuclear energy, as an asset class, has the potential to report well against a wide range of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) data collection and accounting metrics, according to a new report from the Generation IV International Forum (GIF). This should allow nuclear energy to be considered as an investable asset class, thereby allowing nuclear companies and projects to access climate finance.

Russia and the International Atomic Energy Agency are to sign an agreement recognising the Research Institute of Atomic Reactors (NIIAR) in Dimitrovgrad as an international research centre during the 60th Annual Regular Session of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) General Conference to be held in Vienna in September. This was unveiled by NIIAR’s director, Alexander Tuzov, at the meeting with Ulyanovsk Region governor Sergey Morozov and the business community of Dimitrovgrad, according to a NIIAR statement of 22 August. The basis of the centre will be the new MBIR (multipurpose sodium-cooled fast neutron research reactor) under construction at NIIAR. Russian regulator Rostechnadzor issued a construction licence for MBIR in May 2015.
