Lightbridge Corporation Commends U.S. Department of Energy’S Launch of Uprise Initiative and Highlights Lightbridge Fuel Development Lightbridge Corporation, an advanced nuclear fuel technology company, commended the U.S. Department of Energy’s (“DOE”) launch of the Utility Power Reactor Incremental Scaling Effort (“UPRISE”), a new initiative aimed at significantly expanding the nation’s nuclear energy capacity by maximizing the output of existing reactors, restarting dormant facilities, and extending reactor operating lifespans. UPRISE consists of a three-pronged approach: establishing the business case through supply chain and equipment assessments, facilitating physical plant upgrades requiring license amendments, and supporting reactor restarts. The DOE’s Office of Energy Dominance Financing has more than $289 billion in available loan authority. It is prepared to provide up to 80 percent financing for eligible project costs associated with nuclear uprates at attractive interest rates. Power uprates represent one of the most cost-effective pathways to expanding nuclear energy capacity in the United States. Historically, 171 approved uprates have added approximately 8.5 GW of electric capacity to the U.S. grid—the equivalent of roughly eight large reactors—at a fraction of the cost of new construction. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission currently anticipates approximately 30 additional uprate applications through 2030, representing roughly 2.5 GW of potential new capacity. Lightbridge Fuel™ can play a meaningful role in supporting the goals of the UPRISE initiative. Lightbridge Fuel is being designed to provide the greatest power uprates to existing pressurized water reactors. Lightbridge Fuel’s proprietary helical multi-lobe design operates at approximately 1,000°C cooler than conventional nuclear fuel, significantly enhancing safety margins and reducing the risk of hydrogen generation during design basis events. Lightbridge’s ongoing irradiation testing of enriched uranium-zirconium alloy fuel material samples in the Advanced Test Reactor at Idaho National Laboratory, which commenced in November 2025, positions the Company to support this next phase of generating capacity expansion within the U.S. nuclear reactor fleet.
