About this award
The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Nuclear Energy has awarded a $1.135 billion firm fixed-price delivery order to General Matter, Inc. to establish new domestic commercial High-Assay Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU) capacity and commence production of HALEU UF6 for DOE purchase. The work will be performed in San Francisco, California, with an ultimate completion date of March 14, 2036. This delivery order was issued without a set-aside designation under the High-Assay Low-Enriched Uranium Master Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, a multiple-award vehicle through which DOE procures uranium enrichment services. General Matter, Inc. holds two significant HALEU Enrichment Master IDIQs with combined ceiling values totaling $6.1 billion, positioning the company as a key strategic partner in DOE's efforts to develop domestic enrichment capacity.
This award supports the Biden administration's broader initiative to strengthen domestic nuclear fuel supply chains and reduce reliance on foreign uranium enrichment capabilities. HALEU, which contains uranium enriched to levels between 5 and 20 percent U-235, is critical for advanced reactor designs and next-generation nuclear fuel cycles. By establishing new production capacity through this task order, DOE aims to ensure reliable domestic availability of HALEU for both current and future commercial and governmental nuclear applications. The firm fixed-price structure provides cost certainty while the extended performance period through 2036 reflects the long-term nature of building and operating commercial enrichment infrastructure.
