About Us

Powering human progress from Oak Ridge to the world

We manufacture what the DOE calls the world’s most robust nuclear fuel to deliver secure, zero-emissions power while creating high-quality, local jobs.

Safe Fuel for the Future

TRISO-X, a subsidiary of X-energy, was founded on a simple premise: energy systems should be safe, reliable, and grounded in community trust. We are building North America’s first commercial-scale advanced nuclear fuel fabrication facility in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.

Our proprietary fuel replaces large external containment domes with microscopic ceramic barriers, designed to ensure safety is built directly inside the fuel itself. By refining decades of U.S. Department of Energy research, TRISO-X is delivering a domestic supply chain for next-generation small modular reactors (SMRs) and creating long-term opportunity for our hometown.

Leadership Built on Proven Experience

Our work is led by an experienced team of nuclear pioneers and manufacturing experts who prioritize operational rigor and community safety above all else.

Our leadership team brings decades of commercial fuel fabrication expertise to Oak Ridge, raising industry standards for quality control, safety, and efficiency. Together, we translate complex material science into a transparent, world-class manufacturing operation.

TRISO-X in Communities

Oak Ridge has a proud legacy of national energy leadership, and TRISO-X is honored to build the next chapter of that story right here at home. Our investment extends beyond manufacturing equipment—we are powering communities by investing in local schools, workforce training, and civic partnerships.
