USPTO PatentsView assignee record - 10 granted patents across 3 technology areas, active 2020–2025. 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
Texas holds 10 US patents across 3 technology areas, rank #27,633 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Texas Thorium Llc has been granted 10 US utility patents between 2020 and 2025, placing Texas Thorium Llc at rank #27,633 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 3 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 11.6 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, Texas Thorium Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Texas sits between Tenon Medical, Inc. (10 patents, rank #27,629) and The Board Of Regents Of The Nevada System Of Higher Education On Behalf Of The University Of Nevada (10 patents, rank #27,637) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 22.2/100 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 2020 through 2025, with 10 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. Texas Thorium Llc's 11.6 average claims per patent suggests focused, narrowly drawn claims typical of single-invention filings, while specialization in 3 subclasses reflects a tightly scoped invention area. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Texas Thorium Llc against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Texas's 10 grants land it in the top 90% 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.
