Advanced Nuclear Energy Technology Challenge

Diverse stakeholders including policymakers, utilities, and industry leaders are interested in energy sources that are reliable, scalable, carbon-free, secure, and domestic. Nuclear power is one of the few technologies capable of meeting all those requirements simultaneously. Advanced nuclear technologies, including small modular reactors (SMRs), microreactors, and next-generation reactor designs diverge from stereotypical nuclear power plants, massive structures, built decades ago, generating e...
