Program Document ·
OSTI ID:1999200
It is my privilege to present this year’s annual report for the National Reactor Innovation Center (NRIC). Now rounding out our fourth year of operation, NRIC is poised for successfully delivering our most foundational promise: to accelerate the testing and demonstration of advanced nuclear technology by providing access to national laboratory assets and expertise. Some specific goals include: • Establish and maintain four new experimental facility capabilities: o MSTEC – 2025 o METL – Operational o HeCTF – Operational o Creep Frames – 2026 • Construct and operationalize two advanced reactor test beds (DOME and LOTUS) for integrated technology demonstrations and experimentation – 2028 • Complete minimum of two advanced nuclear technology tests – 2030 o Advanced Construction Technology – 2025 o Advanced Microreactor test in DOME or LOTUS – 2027 & 2029
