Reduce the risk and liability of your growing spent nuclear fuel and high-level waste inventories with Deep Isolation nuclear waste solutions. Our three-step plan provides steady progress and is adaptable to specific location factors.
Nuclear Waste Solution Life Cycle

This complete report delivers an IAEA-compliant evidential base with a fully costed business case. We conduct a comprehensive feasibility assessment that includes:
- Initial analysis to investigate suitable locations
- A delivery roadmap that considers regulatory requirements
- A map of the stakeholder environment

This stage demonstrates a working solution with community engagement, site characterization, and a test drillhole. Cold operations review for fuel transfer, placement, retrievability and safety procedures can also be completed with our technology partners and local providers.

As the final step, the deep drillhole repository is operationalized including fuel assembly transfer into custom-fit canisters, and emplacement. This includes:
- Regulatory compliance
- Continued stakeholder engagement
- Repository monitoring
- Material handling activities
- Retrieval procedures
The first step to isolate your nuclear waste inventory is with our Foundation Study. Contact us to see how our solution would work for your needs.
