NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) announced its subsidiary STS supported a completed radioactive-source removal mission in Brazil on September 2, 2026. STS served as lead subcontractor for planning, logistics and removal of cesium-137 from HEMOAM, a medical facility in Manaus. The operation supported the U.S. National Nuclear Security Administration’s Office of Radiological Security and was managed by the Y-12 National Security Complex.
The source traveled by aircraft and then road to secure storage under Brazilian nuclear regulatory oversight, with continuity of custody maintained throughout. HEMOAM transitioned to X-ray blood irradiation through NNSA’s Alternative Technologies initiative, preserving its blood irradiation capability. This was the eighth radioactive-source removal in Brazil through this series of NNSA activities since 2023, with STS supporting the missions.
NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) signed a memorandum of understanding with Hyundai Engineering to evaluate collaboration on its KRONOS MMR project. The framework covers the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign project, whose construction permit application is under NRC review. Initial planned work includes project-execution planning, procurement readiness, modularization, logistics and U.S. localization.
The parties expect to establish a working team and define responsibilities and potential work packages. Possible later cooperation includes engineering, construction, fabrication, U.S. manufacturing facilities and future reactor fleet deployment. Expanded roles depend on technical and commercial evaluation, available scope, university and regulatory requirements, and separate definitive agreements. The non-exclusive MOU awards no specific work package and commits neither party to funding or construction.
NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) signed a three-year engineering services agreement with IMPSA’s U.S. subsidiary to advance KRONOS MMR component development. The non-exclusive agreement covers engineering, design for manufacture and potential future fabrication, with the reactor pressure vessel a principal component under evaluation.
The initial program is a design review and manufacturing feasibility study over an estimated six months, supported by a retainer. IMPSA is expected to assess components against ASME Section III nuclear-component standards. NANO expects early manufacturing input to help identify fabrication and inspection constraints. Future fabrication and other commercial activities beyond initial engineering remain subject to engineering results, applicable regulatory requirements and, where required, additional work orders or definitive agreements.
NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) announced recognition of subsidiary Secured Transportation Services for contributions to two award-winning nuclear transportation missions. The Japan and Venezuela removal teams received 2026 U.S. Department of Energy Secretary of Energy Achievement Awards on September 28, 2026.
STS served as DOE's prime logistics contractor for shipping approximately 1.7 metric tons of high-assay low-enriched uranium from Japan to the United States, alongside associated spent nuclear fuel. It also coordinated U.S. receipt and inland transportation of approximately 13.5 kilograms of highly enriched uranium from Venezuela to the Savannah River Site. Separately, STS completed a uranium hexafluoride shipment for affiliated company LIS Technologies, supporting its uranium enrichment technology testing in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.
NANO Nuclear Energy (NASDAQ: NNE) is advancing its KRONOS MMR construction permit application through NRC review with the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
The university submitted the application on March 31, 2026. The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission accepted it for review on May 18 and began formal review activities on June 23. Both teams have since answered questions and supplied information during the ongoing technical audit.
The NRC’s public schedule targets draft environmental and safety assessments in February 2027, a final Environmental Assessment in May 2027 and a final Safety Evaluation in September 2027. NANO Nuclear continues to expect an opportunity to begin initial construction at the university in the second half of 2027, subject to required regulatory approvals and other customary project requirements. The application remains under review; acceptance was not a construction permit approval.
