Meirzhan Yussupov, CEO of National Atomic Company “Kazatomprom” JSC (“Kazatomprom” or the “Company”), participated in the U.S.-Kazakhstan business roundtable, “From Strategic Partnership to Commercial Action,” held in Washington, D.C., as part of the B20 Summit. The event was organized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan in cooperation with the Atameken National Chamber of Entrepreneurs and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
In his remarks, Meirzhan Yussupov highlighted Kazakhstan’s role in supporting U.S. energy security and the prospects for expanding bilateral cooperation in the nuclear industry. He noted that Kazakhstan has remained the world’s largest producer of natural uranium for more than 15 years, accounting for approximately 40% of global primary uranium production. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, uranium of Kazakh origin accounted for 28% of total purchases by owners and operators of U.S. nuclear power reactors in 2025.
“We are interested in entering into new long-term contracts with U.S. utilities on market terms, in line with our ‘Value over Volume’ approach, which prioritizes long-term value creation. Contracting early allows us to plan production and logistics around our customers’ needs and ensure greater predictability of deliveries,” said Meirzhan Yussupov.
Kazatomprom has a long-standing track record of cooperation with U.S. utilities. To maintain direct and continuous dialogue with its customers in the United States, the Company operates a representative office in Bethesda, Maryland.
Deepening collaboration within the U.S. market aligns with Kazatomprom’s core strategic goals: diversifying its sales portfolio and creating sustainable, long-term value.
