The price increase shows the bottlenecks. Uranium is mined, but then it has to be enriched and converted into nuclear fuel. The resulting fuel rods are then used in nuclear power plants. Only a few companies can convert uranium. Russia plays an important role in conversion and is responsible for around 22 percent of global conversion capacity and 44 percent of enrichment capacity. Although there is a US ban on Russian uranium, there are exemptions until 2027. Two nuclear power plants in Switzerland are currently being criticized because they obtain their uranium from Russia.
Now that nuclear power is experiencing a renaissance, uranium is in demand and in short supply. A supply bottleneck is mainly caused by the necessary converted uranium, as the conversion market is tight.
The world’s interest in nuclear fission technology is great, after all, generating energy in nuclear power plants is about providing a safe, unlimited and clean source of energy. The uranium industry, senior officials and experts are currently meeting at the COP29 climate summit in Baku, Azerbaijan. According to the Paris Agreement, the global temperature rise is to be reduced to below 1.5 degrees Celsius. However, according to a UN report, current investments and measures are still far too low. So, there is still a lot to do to combat climate change. Nuclear energy will certainly contribute to this and must do so as long as renewable energies are not sufficient. As uranium will therefore be in high demand, uranium companies such as Cosa Resources or Uranium Royalty should have good prospects.
