The Department of Energy has awarded four companies spots on a potential 10-year, $2.7 billion contract to procure uranium enrichment services to help establish a domestic supply chain of high-assay low-enriched uranium, or HALEU, used for deploying advanced nuclear reactors.
According to award notices published Wednesday, the HALEU Enrichment contract awardees are American Centrifuge Operating, General Matter, Louisiana Energy Services and Orano Federal Services.
HALEU Enrichment RFP
In January, DOE issued a solicitation for the HALEU Enrichment indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract, which covers the production, storage and transportation of enriched uranium hexafluoride to deconversion facilities.
Enrichment and storage activities must be performed in the continental U.S. in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act.
The department noted that establishing a domestic HALEU supply chain supports President Joe Biden’s Investing in America agenda by helping meet net-zero emissions goal by 2050, creating jobs, strengthening U.S. competitiveness and improving energy security.
