Agreement enables Deep Isolation to explore Latin America nuclear waste market
Deep Isolation announced today it has signed a cooperative agreement with Dominion Engineering, Inc. (DEI), a global leader in specialized nuclear fuel services and technology.
Deep Isolation and DEI will cooperate in the sales, development, and deployment of Deep Isolation’s patented spent nuclear fuel and high-level waste disposal technology, with an initial focus on Latin America and an option to expand to other markets.
There is currently an estimated 7,000 metric tons of SNF awaiting disposal in Latin America, and the nuclear energy infrastructure and waste management considerations in this region make it an ideal candidate for Deep Isolation’s deep borehole technology.
“DEI is excited to be working with Deep Isolation and its partners to bring this innovative and much-needed SNF and HLW management solution to the nuclear industry worldwide,” said DEI President Mike Little.
