Centrus Energy's Oak Ridge Manufacturing Plant Completes And Begins Shipping Its First New Centrifuge To Ohio

This milestone marks the next phase of the project where completed centrifuges manufactured in Tennessee will be shipped to Ohio for final assembly, with the manufacturing rate growing over time. It also reflects that Centrus has now secured a complete and complex manufacturing supply chain. Both milestones were achieved ahead of Centrus' previously-announced year-end target.

Centrus' technology is fully licensed, proven and de-risked, with more than four million machine-hours of successful operation. Its existing centrifuge cascade in Ohio includes components manufactured in 2019, as well as components the company manufactured in prior years, and has been reliably producing High-Assay, Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU) since late 2023. In December 2025, Centrus restarted centrifuge manufacturing activities in Oak Ridge to support a major expansion of its uranium enrichment capacity in Ohio. In January 2026, the company announced a $560 million investment to expand and modernize its Oak Ridge Technology and Manufacturing Center, transitioning it to a high-rate manufacturing plant capable of supporting production of thousands of advanced centrifuges.
