Utilities Service Alliance and Curio Sign MOU for Nuclear Fuel Recycling and Fuel Supply for Its Members' Nuclear Reactors
Partnership will provide USA's member utilities with access to safe, efficient nuclear waste recycling services and the option to purchase UF6 as a fuel source for up to 18 nuclear reactors throughout the U.S. NASHVILLE, Tenn. & WASHINGTON, June 18, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today, during the annual USA Nuclear Generator & Supplier Executive Summit in Nashville, Curio, an innovative leader in advanced nuclear technologies, and Utilities Service Alliance, Inc. (USA), a non-profit cooperative that facilitates collaboration among electric utilities that own or operate nuclear power plants, signed a memorandum of understanding that will provide for collaboration and the potential for future supplier-partner agreements between Curio and the various USA utility members. "This partnership with USA represents a strategic and significant step within the U.S. nuclear industry as it takes decisive steps to support future growth of the nation's nuclear generation capacity in a sustainable and resource-efficient manner," said Edward McGinnis, CEO of Curio and former (Acting) Assistant Secretary for Nuclear Energy at the U.S. Department of Energy. "We look forward to working with its member utilities to help build a secure, efficient infrastructure for the 'Second Nuclear Era.'" Nuclear energy offers a clean, safe, and economically viable solution for meeting the soaring energy demands from AI, data centers, and beyond, while securing energy independence for the U.S. As the first vertically integrated company focused on the U.S. closed fuel cycle, Curio's NuCycle® technology recovers valuable materials from spent fuel, slashing high-level waste by up to 97% and emissions by up to 88%. "The MOU between Curio and Utilities Service Alliance represents a bold step toward securing a sustainable future for nuclear energy," said Karen Fili, President and CEO of Utilities Service Alliance, Inc. "By leveraging Curio's advanced technology and vision, we're opening the door to new opportunities for our members – enhancing economic value, strengthening supply chain resilience, and supporting innovation that aligns with USA's unwavering commitment to our nuclear future." This announcement comes on the heels of President Trump's recent Executive Order on nuclear power that calls for plans to be put in place by both the Departments of Energy and Defense to recycle our nation's current stockpile of more than 90,000 metric tons of used nuclear fuel, and the 2,000 metric tons generated annually by civilian reactors and defense applications. "By embracing nuclear fuel recycling, maximizing its uranium resources, and producing transuranic isotopes for advanced reactors, the U.S. is launching a closed nuclear fuel cycle economy—a game-changer for clean, reliable energy," added McGinnis. "The nuclear renaissance is here, and at Curio, we're thrilled to lead this charge in cooperation with our nation's utilities." As part of this MOU and as Curio's used nuclear fuel recycling products and services become available, the parties intend to enter into good faith negotiations to establish a written supplier partner agreement signed by both Curio and USA for products and services including discounted uranium feedstocks and waste minimization services. This agreement is strengthened by Curio's previously announced MOUs for recycling services, offtake agreements and/or research partnerships with Energy Northwest, a USA member utility, Orano, NANO Nuclear, Lightbridge, and more. Curio has also signed R&D partnerships with four esteemed U.S. national laboratories, including Idaho National Lab (INL), Oak Ridge National Lab (ORNL), Pacific North National Lab (PNNL), and Sandia. About Curio Curio ( stands at the forefront of nuclear technology innovation, driving breakthroughs in sustainable nuclear power generation, fuel recycling, and waste management. We are committed to pioneering new solutions that reshape the future of nuclear energy, fostering partnerships and innovations that will redefine the industry for generations to come.

Texas Instruments to invest more than $60 billion to make semiconductors in the US
Texas Instruments will invest more than $60 billion to expand semiconductor manufacturing in the United States, the company announced on Wednesday, as President Donald Trump continues to pressure tech giants like Apple and Samsung to build their products in America. The investment will go towards seven semiconductor fabrication plants across Texas and Utah, resulting in more than 60,000 jobs, the company said in a press release. TI says it's working with the Trump administration to help produce the critical chips that power everything from smartphones to data centers and cars domestically. It's part of the White House's push to keep the United States ahead of China in the technology industry while promoting American manufacturing. TI, which partners with tech and auto giants like Apple, Nvidia and Ford, claims this is the 'largest investment in foundational semiconductor manufacturing in US history.' 'President Trump has made it a priority to increase semiconductor manufacturing in America – including these foundational semiconductors that go into the electronics that people use every day,' US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said in a press release. 'Our partnership with TI will support US chip manufacturing for decades to come.' The announcement marks the latest major planned investment in the United States by an American company as Trump pushes industries like tech to onshore more production. Earlier this month, General Motors said it would invest $4 billion to increase US production. Apple said in February that it would invest $500 billion to expand its US facilities. Oracle, OpenAI and SoftBank announced in January that they would team up to create a new company called Stargate to grow artificial intelligence infrastructure in America. However, some of these tech giants – including Apple and TSMC – were expanding in the United States long before Trump's second administration. Reviving US manufacturing has been a tentpole goal of Trump's presidency. For the first three months of his second term, he went on a tariff blitz, promising to impose levies on nearly every product made abroad. He claimed these efforts would boost jobs in the US and rebalance what he saw as unfair practices by America's trading partners. Trump Mobile, a new venture from the Trump Organization, plans to launch a new smartphone in September that it claims will be 'proudly designed and built' in the United States. But experts have said manufacturing products like iPhones domestically would be a daunting challenge even if the United States had the necessary fabrication plants. That's primarily because America lacks the labor skills and components to produce them. Staying ahead of China in the tech race has been another priority of Trump's presidency, especially after Chinese startup DeepSeek shook Wall Street and Silicon Valley with its high-performing yet supposedly cheap AI model. 'The United States of America is the leader in AI,' Vice President JD Vance said at the Artificial Intelligence Action Summit in Paris in February. 'And our administration plans to keep it that way.'
