LIGHTBRIDGE Corp LTBR
When used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the terms "Lightbridge," the "Company," "we," "our," and "us" refer to Lightbridge Corporation together with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Lightbridge International Holding LLC and Thorium Power Inc.
At Lightbridge, we believe that increasing the supply of reliable electric power is necessary for people and economies to flourish. We are developing next generation nuclear fuel for water-cooled reactors that could significantly improve the economics and safety of existing and new nuclear power plants, large and small, and enhance proliferation resistance of spent nuclear fuel while supplying clean energy to the electric grid or to "behind the meter" customers for electric power, including data centers. We project that the world's energy needs and climate goals can only be met if nuclear power's share of the energy-generating mix grows substantially in the coming decades. We believe Lightbridge can benefit from a growing nuclear power industry, and that our nuclear fuel can help enable that growth to happen.
