Sigh. No, the US hasn't been out of the "nuclear fuel game". There are commercial separation plants, including URENCO in Nevada. That fuels existing reactors and new conventional designs such as the AP-1000. This press release is about "high-assay, low-enriched uranium", which isn't used by many reactors yet.

If any. NuScale was going to use this stuff. But that project was cancelled a few weeks ago. Costs too much. There are advanced reactors being talked about. Does anyone know of any that actually need this fuel right now? Maybe outside the US there are some.

(NRC: "Natural uranium is made of about 0.7 % U-235 and traditional reactor fuel is enriched to between 3% and 5% U-235." High-assay, low-enriched uranium is, per the NRC, 5% - 20% u-235. Weapons grade is around 90%.)
