The Energy Secretary’s plans involve highly radioactive used fuel rods being dropped into holes drilled deep into the Earth’s crust. The experimental approach, pioneered by Deep Isolation.

Should next-generation nuclear reactors be part of California’s energy future? Assembly Bill 305 would exempt small modular reactors from the current ban.

A Berkeley-based nuclear energy firm has collaborated on spent fuel management for advanced underground reactors. For this, Deep Fission has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Deep Isolation, a leader in deep borehole nuclear waste disposal solutions.

In an era where sustainable energy solutions are more crucial than ever, Deep Fission and Deep Isolation have joined forces to tackle one of the most challenging aspects of nuclear energy: waste management. By leveraging cutting-edge technology, these companies aim to transform the way we handle spent nuclear fuel and radioactive waste. Their collaboration marks a significant milestone in the nuclear energy sector, setting a new standard for safety and efficiency. 

Deep Isolation, a leader in nuclear waste disposal technology, collaborated with the University of Sheffield Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC) to successfully complete 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.
