NANO Nuclear Energy Signs Memorandum of Understanding with  Everstar AI to Leverage its Suite of New AI Tools to Modernize  the Nuclear Regulatory & Licensing Process

Everstar’s AI-powered services have the potential to save significant time and resources by transforming the way licensing and regulatory processes are handled.

NEW YORK, N.Y., July 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Nano Nuclear Energy, Inc. (Nasdaq: NNE) (Nano Nuclear Energy), announced today that it has Everstar Nuclear Energy, a vertically integrated microreactor and advanced nuclear technology startup developing portable, clean energy solutions, today announced that it has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Everstar Corporation (Everstar).

Nuclear technology companies face a number of regulatory challenges that can impact or delay the development and commercialization of innovative technologies, or even conventional power plants. These measures often lengthen the approval deadlines for nuclear power projects, increasing costs and extending construction times.

Everstar is developing advanced AI methodologies to enable nuclear technical and regulatory teams across the nuclear supply chain to accelerate and add more accuracy to their design and regulatory licensing processes.

Under the MoU, Nanonuclear and Everstar will explore leveraging Everstar’s suite of AI-based consulting and technology solutions to modernize the regulatory licensing process for Nanonuclear’s manufacturing, conversion, transportation and microreactor development projects. Nanonuclear will also evaluate the addition of additional support services, including AI-based documentation automation, stringent quality and performance assurance, compliance reporting and supply chain management throughout the project lifecycle. The addition of employee training programs, risk mitigation strategies and customized marketing strategies will also be explored as part of a comprehensive assessment of Everstar’s AI capabilities.

We are pleased to enter into this cooperation with Nano Nuclear Company, Kevin Kong, founder of Everstar, said: AI is a powerful lever to reshape how we design, analyze, demonstrate, and regulate complex, safety-critical technologies like nuclear power. By leveraging Everstar’s advanced AI capabilities and vast data bank, companies like NANO Nuclear can focus on their core mission: pioneering progress for humanity’s future. We are proud to support these potentially transformative initiatives and are excited to help build a world of abundant clean energy with forward-thinking companies like NANO Nuclear.

The complex and intricate regulatory process requires significant capital allocation for compliance, comprehensive safety analyses, and a host of other requirements, James Walker, CEO and Head of Reactor Development at Nano Nuclear Energy, said:Addressing these longstanding regulatory challenges in new ways is critical to fostering technological innovation and ensuring that next-generation nuclear solutions are successfully integrated into the global energy landscape. Especially in light of the recent passage of the ADVANCE Act in the United States to support nuclear innovation, we have high hopes that Everstar’s AI technologies can grow alongside NANO Nuclear and provide not only our company, but the entire nuclear energy industry, with a turnkey solution to accelerate regulatory and commercialization efforts.

We consider ourselves to be at the forefront of nuclear energy technology and innovation, and so we are pleased to announce our collaboration with Everstar to explore new and advanced ways to navigate the complex regulatory licensing and commercialization processes in the U.S. nuclear energy industry. Jay Yu, founder and chairman of Nano Nuclear Energy, said: We believe that the opportunity to use AI technology to simplify these regulatory complexities is critical to driving technological innovation and ensuring the successful integration of next-generation nuclear solutions into the global energy landscape. Everstar’s AI-powered services have the potential to save significant time and resources by transforming the way we approach licensing and regulatory processes, and I am excited to see what we can achieve together.
