In this report, we will assess the current U.S. tariff framework alongside international policy adaptations, analyzing their effects on competitive market structures, regional economic dynamics, and supply chain resilience.
In 2024, global Uranium Zirconium Hydride(UZrH) Fuels production reached approximately 584 kg, with an average global market price of around US$ 23,165 per kg. In 2024, the global 's total production capacity of Uranium Zirconium Hydride(UZrH) Fuels reached 690 kg.The industry average gross profit margin of this product reached 42%.
Uranium Zirconium Hydride (UZrH) fuels are metallic hydride fuels that tightly bind nuclear fuel (uranium) and moderator (hydrogen). They are primarily composed of three elements: uranium (U), zirconium (Zr), and hydrogen (H). Typically, the uranium is low-enriched uranium-235 (e.g., less than 20%, falling into the category of sub-highly enriched uranium), zirconium serves as the matrix material, and hydrogen exists in the zirconium lattice as a metallic hydride. The upstream industrial chain mainly involves the production and preparation of nuclear-grade raw materials. The core环节 (link/step) includes the extraction and conversion of uranium for nuclear fuel, requiring steps such as uranium mining, hydrometallurgical production of "yellowcake," and purification conversion to obtain uranium with the desired enrichment level. Simultaneously, high-purity metallic zirconium needs to be prepared, which involves the chlorination and purification of zircon sand to produce nuclear-grade sponge zirconium. Furthermore, the supply of high-purity hydrogen is also indispensable. The upstream industry is the foundation of the entire industrial chain; its material purity, stability, and cost have a decisive impact on the final fuel performance. The midstream is the core technological link in UZrH fuel manufacturing, responsible for synthesizing qualified fuel products from upstream raw materials. First, uranium and zirconium need to be smelted into a uranium-zirconium alloy in a specific ratio. Subsequently, under strictly controlled temperature and pressure conditions, the alloy undergoes a hydrogenation reaction with hydrogen to generate uranium-zirconium hydride (UZrH) pellets. This step (hydrogenation process) is a unique and critical technology that directly determines the hydrogen content and distribution in the fuel, thus affecting its nuclear performance and safety characteristics. Finally, the fuel pellets are encapsulated in cladding tubes (usually made of stainless steel or other alloys), welded, inspected, and assembled into the final fuel rods or fuel elements. The downstream industry chain focuses on the application and life-cycle management of UZrH fuel. Its primary application market is the research, design, and operation of micro modular reactors (MMRs) and space nuclear propulsion systems, providing the core power source for these compact energy devices. During operation, this involves fuel loading, on-reactor monitoring, and final spent fuel management. Because UZrH fuel contains easily escaping hydrogen, its spent fuel reprocessing technology is likely more complex than that of traditional oxide fuels and is currently still in the research and exploration stage, including the development of temporary storage, safe transportation, and final disposal plans.
