Oklo's reactors can convert used nuclear fuel into clean energy. Today's reactors use about 5% of the energy content contained in their fuel, meaning nearly 95% of the energy content remains unused.
Industry leader
Oklo has won over $15 million in U.S. Department of Energy awards for recycling
Waste to clean energy
Enough energy in the used fuel in the U.S. to power the entire country for over 150 years
Domestic fuel supply
Oklo is developing fuel recycling technologies to provide cost-competitive fuel to its advanced reactors to produce clean energy
Oklo’s Advanced Recycling Facility
Oklo is building the nation’s first privately funded nuclear fuel recycling facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. This $1.68 billion investment will create more than 800 high-quality jobs while establishing a secure, domestic fuel supply for advanced reactors like our Aurora powerhouse.

Proliferation resistant
Advanced recycling techniques keep transuranic materials together to fuel Oklo’s reactors and do not create pure material streams. This is a unique enabling feature of fast reactors.
