HALEU is urgently needed for next-gen nuclear energy, says former SpaceX engineer

HALEU (high-assay low-enriched uranium) is enriched uranium ranging from 5% to 20%, promising greater efficiency for advanced reactors. Scott Nolan, a former SpaceX engineer and CEO of General Matter, aims to break Russia's hold on this enriched nuclear fuel by producing it commercially in the U.S. and significantly reducing costs.
