Oklo announces participation in DOE voucher program

Oklo (OKLO) has announced its participation in the U.S. Department of Energy Voucher Program, which is expected to support the evaluation and testing of advanced structural materials for Oklo’s Aurora powerhouse. The initiative, part of the Technology Commercialization Fund and funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act, aims to enhance efficiencies in manufacturing, supply chain, and overall scalability as Oklo accelerates the deployment of its commercial powerhouses. Energywerx will manage the DOE’s Voucher Program in collaboration with Oak Ridge National Laboratory. This collaboration leverages DOE-funded vouchers to conduct advanced material characterization and real-world testing to validate high-performance materials that will support Oklo’s fast reactor designs.
