prnewswire: SHINE Selected for Two DOE Genesis Mission Projects Advancing AI in Nuclear Fuel Recycling

August 6, 2026

SHINE, a fusion energy company with a platform expanding into nuclear fuel recycling, has been selected for the U.S. Department of Energy's Genesis Mission, the administration's historic, more-than-$5-billion national initiative to double America's scientific output through AI. A fusion energy company developing technology to recycle used nuclear fuel, SHINE will play two roles in the initiative: leading one project and contributing to another.

Leading: an AI tool to design better recycling

SHINE is the prime recipient on "AI-Guided Fuel Cycle Facility Optimization," a Phase I project with Argonne National Laboratory as its technical partner. The goal is an AI-enabled workflow that helps engineers design better fuel recycling processes — one that weighs performance, product quality, and waste together, automatically and with a clear record of how each tradeoff was made, instead of evaluating them one at a time.
