Can U.S. uranium supply meet demand?
The four executive orders recently signed by President Donald Trump help to address the importance and growth of the U.S. nuclear-energy sector in domestic power generation, but it’ll be quite a challenge for the nation to provide the uranium it requires to quadruple nuclear-energy capacity in 25 years.
In order to meet the U.S. government’s nuclear-energy-capacity goal, it would need to quadruple the nation’s current demand of around 45 million pounds of U3O8 — uranium concentrate — to roughly 180 million pounds each year
