Deep Isolation, a leading innovator in nuclear waste disposal technology, has successfully completed Project PUCK, a groundbreaking, government-funded initiative to demonstrate the feasibility and potential commercial readiness of its Universal Canister System (UCS) to manage TRISO spent nuclear fuel.

Deep Fission Inc. (Deep Fission), the pioneering nuclear energy startup revolutionizing the industry by placing reactors a mile underground, and Deep Isolation, a leader in deep borehole nuclear waste disposal solutions, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to collaborate on spent fuel management for Deep Fission’s advanced underground reactors. This agreement marks a shared commitment to ensuring a comprehensive approach to the full nuclear fuel cycle.

Deep Isolation, a leader in nuclear waste disposal technology, has successfully completed a multi-year project with the UK government, marking a major step forward in proving the feasibility and commercial readiness of deep borehole disposal solutions.

Deep Isolation will participate in the ARPA-E Energy Innovation Summit in Washington, D.C., an event bringing together energy industry leaders and experts to explore breakthrough technologies, shaping the future of energy innovation.

With financial support from USTDA, Bulgaria’s national waste management organization, the State Enterprise Radioactive Waste (SERAW), has engaged Deep Isolation to conduct a Feasibility Study.
