Piketon, Ohio
Home of the American Centrifuge Plant, where America is enriching uranium again.
What Happens Here
In late 2023, Centrus began uranium enrichment operations at the American Centrifuge Plant in Piketon, the first US-owned, US-technology enrichment plant to start production since 1954.
Under a contract with the US Department of Energy, the plant is pioneering production of HALEU.
- A footprint roughly the size of the US Pentagon building.
- Located on the Department of Energy’s Portsmouth Gaseous Diffusion Plant reservation.
Made in America
The American Centrifuge is operated here in Ohio and built in Tennessee, on a supply chain of 14 American companies across at least 13 states. Piketon is where the country’s enrichment capability is being rebuilt.
