He shares his entrepreneurial journey and explains how Aternium is tackling a critical U.S. supply chain vulnerability by establishing domestic deuterium production. Andrew highlights Aternium's pre-FEED study with Kiewit, their revolutionary integration of Honeywell’s AI-driven digital twin technology, and sourcing electricity produced by nuclear power through a power purchase agreement (PPA).
