WyLib Summary: Wyoming’s Nuclear Supply Chain Opportunities and Challenges: Uranium Enrichment (Nuclear Series Part 1)

The report finds that while Wyoming has a favorable tax climate and an emerging nuclear supply chain, building a uranium enrichment facility would require massive investment, state subsidies, and acceptance of significant environmental and liability risks. Although potential economic benefits could reach billions in investment and hundreds of jobs, past enrichment projects show long delays and high uncertainty. Overall, the report concludes that enrichment in Wyoming is unlikely to proceed without substantial government support.
