About Lightbridge Corporation
Lightbridge (NASDAQ:LTBR) is a nuclear fuel
technology company based in Reston, Virginia, USA. The Company
develops proprietary next generation nuclear fuel technologies for
current and future reactors. The technology significantly enhances
the economics and safety of nuclear power, operating about 1000° C
cooler than standard fuel. Lightbridge invented, patented and has
independently validated the technology, including successful
demonstration of the fuel in a research reactor with near-term
plans to demonstrate the fuel under commercial reactor conditions.
The Company has assembled a world class development team including
veterans of leading global fuel manufacturers. Four large electric
utilities that generate about half the nuclear power in the US
already advise Lightbridge on fuel development and deployment. The
Company operates under a licensing and royalty model, independently
validated and based on the increased power generated by
Lightbridge-designed fuel and high ROI for operators of existing
and new reactors. The economic benefits are further enhanced by
anticipated carbon credits available under the Clean Power Plan.
Lightbridge also provides comprehensive advisory services for
established and emerging nuclear programs based on a philosophy of
transparency, non-proliferation, safety and operational excellence.
