WASHINGTON, Sept. 19,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- On Tuesday, September 24, Centrus Energy will host a
special briefing on Capitol Hill to outline the path forward for
restoring a large-scale, American-owned, American-technology
uranium enrichment capability and the associated supply
chain.
The briefing will discuss how Russia, China
and others have displaced the United
States as the global leaders in uranium enrichment – and
what it will take to re-establish America's domestic supply
chain.
Centrus President and CEO Amir
Vexler, joined by leaders of other large and small
businesses in Centrus' nationwide manufacturing supply chain, will
discuss their plan to expand the American Centrifuge Plant in
Piketon, Ohio, so it can meet the
full range of U.S. commercial and national security requirements
for enriched uranium. The potential expansion will require a
public-private partnership combining robust federal investment with
significant private capital and commercial offtake agreements. The
briefing will update policymakers, industry, and the media on this
effort and what's needed to make the expansion a reality.
