Description
Description | Centrus Energy has begun domestic manufacturing of uranium-enrichment centrifuges to support commercial low-enriched uranium production at its Piketon facility. This industrial-scale build aims to supply centrifuges for commercial LEU enrichment in Ohio, with plans for eventual commercial-scale production of high-assay, low-enriched uranium (HALEU). The project is expected to create thousands of jobs, including construction and operating jobs in Ohio and manufacturing jobs in Tennessee. First new production capacity is expected to come online in 2029. |
