LIGHTBRIDGE FUEL TECHNOLOGY

Lightbridge is developing new fuel that works in existing and new reactors: improving their economics through power uprates, longer fuel cycles, and carbon credits while adding additional non-emitting baseload electricity with dramatically improved reactor safety.  Lightbridge is focusing its development efforts primarily on demonstrating its metallic fuel rod technology and a fuel assembly design for power uprates in existing pressurized water reactors.  There are significant technology synergies among Lightbridge’s primary fuel products due to utilization of the proprietary metallic fuel rod technology that is at the core of each of them. As a result, full-scale demonstration and qualification of the metallic fuel rod technology will simultaneously advance all of the fuel product families currently under development by Lightbridge.

CAPABILITIES

Lightbridge Corporation operates to the philosophy that the requirements for a nuclear program are specific to each nation and that while the arrangements should take full account of IAEA guidance, the means of program implementation will reflect local values, cultures and needs. Lightbridge therefore has a network of truly independent, internationally recognized experts who understand international needs and can reflect these in their advice to each nation.
