CCJ is transforming into a vertically integrated energy leader, leveraging nuclear power's crucial role in meeting AI-driven energy demand. CCJ's Westinghouse partnership accelerates entry into high-margin reactor services, creating recurring revenue streams and a strategic hedge against mining cyclicality.
