“… for what you have to build for enrichment capacity Right Yeah So like you said there really two types of fuel LEU and HALU that are used in nuclear energy which is what we focused on LEU is anywhere from 3% to 5% enriched of U-235 by weight. HALU is technically anywhere 5% to 20%. But really, it's typically going to be 15% to 19.75%. And the reason it's 19.75 is you want to keep some buffer against the 20% that really triggers weapons grade classification and a whole bunch of international standards. And so the reason that there's two different levels, if we go back to the underlying tech, the …”
“… One, which is the incumbent fuel, LEU, and then the second, which is for kind of the next gen, the Gen 4 reactors, which generally run on HALU. Can you just walk me through the difference between those two, both in general, and then what it means for what you have to build for enrichment capacity Right Yeah So like you said there really two types of fuel LEU and HALU that are used in nuclear energy which is what we focused on LEU is anywhere from 3% to 5% enriched of U-235 by weight. HALU is technically anywhere 5% to 20%. But really, it's typically going to be 15% to 19.75%. And the reason it's 19.75 is you want to keep some buffer against the 20% that really triggers weapons grade classification and a whole bunch of international standards. And so the reason that there's two different levels, if we go back to the underlying tech, the traditional reactors that you have that are gigawatt scale and are very large, those have a large core. And so they don't need a lot of enrichment to get fuel to go critical. You have a larger amount of fuel in there, and it can burn for a longer period of time with still pretty good efficiency. And so that's traditionally been done to 3% to 5%. As …”
