The Department of Energy has awarded five companies positions on a potential 10-year, $3.4 billion contract to procure low-enriched uranium, or LEU, from domestic commercial sources.
According to award notices published Tuesday on SAM.gov, the selected vendors are American Centrifuge Operating, General Matter, Global Laser Enrichment, LIS Technologies and Louisiana Energy Services.
What Is LEU Enrichment Contract?
Through the indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quality contract, DOE seeks to expand domestic commercial LEU enrichment capabilities to establish a reliable supply of commercial nuclear fuel critical to U.S. clean energy and energy security goals.
All LEU purchased by DOE through the contract vehicle, which is supported by the current administration’s Investing in America agenda, should be enriched and stored in the continental U.S.
According to the performance work statement, LEU will be manufactured at enrichment levels that support the U.S. fleet of light water reactors.
