USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 31 granted patents across 26 technology areas, active 2022–2025. Filing-trend and competitive-moat analysis cross-referenced to USPTO Patent Public Search. Primary class: Y02E (REDUCTION OF GREENHOUSE GAS [GHG] EMISSIONS, RELATED TO ENERGY GENERATION, TRANSMISSION OR DISTRIBUTION).
The verdict
BWXT holds 31 US patents across 26 technology areas, rank #9,982 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
BWXT Advanced Technologies Llc has been granted 31 US utility patents between 2022 and 2025, placing BWXT Advanced Technologies Llc at rank #9,982 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 26 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 22.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in Y02E (REDUCTION OF GREENHOUSE GAS [GHG] EMISSIONS, RELATED TO ENERGY GENERATION, TRANSMISSION OR DISTRIBUTION). As a US Corporation, BWXT Advanced Technologies Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, BWXT sits between BIG Dutchman International Gmbh (31 patents, rank #9,978) and Blueair AB (31 patents, rank #9,986) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 63.4/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Historical data spans 2022 through 2025, with 31 total grants over that period. Velocity comparisons require five years of historical filings to calibrate. The US Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. BWXT Advanced Technologies Llc's 22.3 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 26 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark BWXT Advanced Technologies Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
BWXT's 31 grants land it in the top 2% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
