Oklo and Lightbridge are jointly assessing the feasibility of commercial-scale fuel fabrication within Oklo\u2019s planned fuel manufacturing infrastructure. Consistent with the objectives of the MOU, this initiative aims to accelerate the commercialization of advanced nuclear fuels through joint fuel fabrication and research and development, including manufacturing fuel using repurposed plutonium from legacy materials.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">This announcement follows a series of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=hf84xirVqGF8JW2nkzxCZtAVocheCb19FscUp2CTAJG6V_UFSUf3jExUl4-2hg068DLMB78OjXYPP2JDF4-Rmd80ArGv3S5yl7jM_PK6lU6oAotj_i6aEJF4WakhS18lIxdsK19H-mGYBe5lO4wEgck1gDQFJYBsEJrLkKcsmyIR9ekaDFwG_igoNOSM7QCIGUiWDavgVkWwkgsb4cxoaKyRxvm2w_p8xbKo5w2P6aby9URU1XmqyrI-C12JDMqMUqvxkvzEYfy8Kmu_VWcvQpItjstYJfzNXSj-5YJfP6k=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">executive orders issued by the White House<\/a> in May 2025 that prioritize the acceleration of U.S. nuclear energy deployment. Among the directives was a call for the Secretary of Energy to establish a program to process surplus plutonium and make it available for advanced reactor fuel.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The proposed co-located facility would support the production of advanced fuels for both fast reactors and light water reactors, reinforcing both companies\u2019 commitment to U.S. leadership in advanced nuclear fuel manufacturing and recycling. The collaboration underscores a shared vision for strengthening domestic energy security, supporting advanced reactor deployment, improving the performance of existing light water reactors, and enhancing the resilience of the nuclear fuel supply chain.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cWe\u2019re building the infrastructure to help fuel new nuclear development and deployment,\u201d said Jacob DeWitte, Co-Founder and CEO of Oklo. \u201cThis collaboration supports our efforts to bolster near- and mid-term advanced reactor fuel supplies with legacy materials such as down-blended uranium and repurposed plutonium. It directly aligns with strong federal direction supporting domestic fuel independence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">In addition to commercial fuel production, the co-located site would serve as a joint R&amp;D hub for advanced fuel development. These capabilities align with emerging federal policy and represent a critical step toward building a robust commercial supply chain for next-generation nuclear technologies.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\u201cThis joint effort reflects a shared vision for a modern nuclear fuel cycle\u2014one that supports both existing and advanced reactors and strengthens America\u2019s energy resilience,\u201d said Seth Grae, President and CEO of Lightbridge Corporation. \u201cTogether, we\u2019re working toward a new era of U.S.-led nuclear innovation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About Oklo Inc.<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Oklo Inc. is developing fast fission power plants to deliver clean, reliable, and affordable energy at scale, establishing a domestic supply chain for critical radioisotopes, and advancing nuclear fuel recycling to convert nuclear waste into clean energy. Oklo was the first to receive a site use permit from the U.S. Department of Energy for a commercial advanced fission plant, was awarded fuel from Idaho National Laboratory, and submitted the first custom combined license application for an advanced reactor to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Oklo is also developing advanced fuel recycling technologies in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy and national laboratories.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About\u202fLightbridge Corporation<\/strong>\u00a0<br \/>Lightbridge Corporation (NASDAQ: LTBR) is focused on developing advanced nuclear fuel technology essential for delivering abundant, zero-emission, clean energy and providing energy security to the world. The Company is developing Lightbridge Fuel\u2122, a proprietary next-generation nuclear fuel technology for existing light water reactors and pressurized heavy water reactors, significantly enhancing reactor safety, economics, and proliferation resistance. The Company is also developing Lightbridge Fuel for new small modular reactors (SMRs) to bring the same benefits plus load-following with renewables on a zero-carbon electric grid.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Lightbridge has entered into two long-term framework agreements with Battelle Energy Alliance LLC, the United States Department of Energy\u2019s operating contractor for Idaho National Laboratory, the United States&#8217; lead nuclear energy research and development laboratory.
