Post# of 388
Energy Fuels (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) is well positioned as clean energy has become a top priority worldwide. A recent article discussing this shines the spotlight on Capitol Hill and strong bipartisan support for nuclear energy. Energy Fuels, a member of the Nuclear Energy Institute (“NEI”), is among the companies paying close attention as hallmark pieces of legislation have demonstrated that carbon-free, always-on nuclear power is an indispensable driver of the clean energy future. The article discusses the “Build Back Better Act, which is currently on the back burner but contains broadly supported climate provisions that include a production tax credit (‘PTC’) for electricity generated by nuclear power plants in operation today, as well as tax credits for all clean electricity technologies… The bill also includes funding for the development of a domestic high-assay low-enriched uranium (‘HALEU’) supply, a fuel which is essential to the demonstration of advanced reactors, as well as resources to support efforts such as the coal to nuclear transition.”
Discussing Energy Fuels’ positioning, the piece reads, “The company operates three of America’s key uranium production centers: the White Mesa Mill in Utah, the Nichols Ranch ISR Project in Wyoming and the Alta Mesa ISR Project in Texas. The White Mesa Mill is the only conventional uranium mill operating in the U.S. today and has a licensed capacity of more than 8 million pounds of U3O8 per year… The Nichols Ranch ISR Project is currently on standby and has a licensed capacity of 2 million pounds of U3O8 per year. The Alta Mesa ISR Project is also currently on standby… In addition to these production facilities, Energy Fuels has one of the largest NI 43-101-compliant uranium resource portfolios in the country, along with several uranium and uranium/vanadium mining projects on standby and in various stages of permitting and development.”
