enCore Energy’s Alta Mesa Central Processing Plant<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nSouth Texas is rich in uranium resources, the necessary fuel for nuclear energy, and enCore will be celebrating this significant economic benefit providing employment and business development to the local communities in the Corpus Christi area, Texas and the United States. Nuclear energy is the only zero carbon energy source and accounts for 20% of the energy for the United States electric supply. In 1980, the United States was 100% energy-independent for nuclear energy and produced over 40,000,000 pounds of uranium. In 2023, the United States produced less than 1% of its uranium required for nuclear energy, with more than 50% of its supply dependent upon Russia- placing the country in a vulnerable position. enCore Energy is working to replace foreign sources of uranium and is 100% committed to domestic uranium production through environmentally-friendly methods. How could you not be excited to coordinate this event and celebrate the amazing people who made everything possible, only 20 months after acquiring the plant!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, stay tuned- I will give you an update but for now, the craziness of event planning is underway and it\u2019s amazing how many times I look back and draw on the projects of my past to plan this event.

One day, I wandered into the […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":1773,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1765"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1765"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1765\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1775,"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1765\/revisions\/1775"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1773"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1765"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1765"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/janetsheriff.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1765"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
