NANO Nuclear’s STS Subsidiary Ships 1.7-Ton HALEU, Removes 13.5kg HEU
NNE•STS completed three high-priority DOE and NNSA nuclear transport missions, shipping 1.7 metric tons of HALEU from Japan, removing 13.5 kg of HEU from Venezuela, and delivering HALEU domestically for reactor testing. It embeds STS’s logistics, compliance and multi-modal transport capabilities into NANO Nuclear’s microreactor and fuel-cycle platform.
1. STS Acquisition Strengthens Logistics Platform
NANO Nuclear acquired Secured Transportation Services LLC to integrate specialized nuclear logistics, regulatory compliance and multi-modal transport capabilities, positioning the company to control end-to-end fuel-cycle and microreactor deployment operations.
2. Record HALEU Shipment from Japan
STS served as the DOE’s prime logistics contractor for a campaign that moved 1.7 metric tons of HALEU from Japan—the largest single international uranium shipment in NNSA history—and transported six Type B spent fuel casks to the Savannah River Site.
3. Venezuela HEU Removal Mission
STS provided logistics planning and domestic transfer support for the removal of 13.5 kilograms of HEU from Venezuela’s RV-1 research reactor, delivering the material to the Savannah River Site for down blending and future advanced reactor fuel use.
4. Integration Benefits for NANO Platform
By embedding STS’s mission-proven transport services, NANO Nuclear enhances its in-house fuel-cycle logistics, compliance and security infrastructure, accelerating its vertically integrated microreactor and advanced nuclear fuel supply strategy.
