Astera Institute, a non-profit that supports science and technology projects, completed a $100m Series C round in Last Energy, an advanced nuclear technology company, with participation from JAM Fund, Gigafund, The Haskell Company, AE Ventures, Ultranative, Galaxy Interactive, and Woori Technology. “We believe this financing will fully capitalize us through our DOE pilot project and position us to transition into commercialization of our production power plants. A new nuclear era is underway, and we intend to showcase how factory fabrication will unlock the scalability that the energy market demands," Bret Kugelmass, Last Energy Founder and CEO.
