The Gateway for Accelerated Innovation in Nuclear (GAIN) just unveiled Milestones in Advanced Nuclear, an interactive website that provides the latest news in the U.S. nuclear power industry.
GAIN is industry’s gateway into the national labs. Now GAIN is also the gateway into nuclear news.

Nexus provides a single point of access to NNSA. | https://gain.inl.gov/SitePages/Nexus.aspx |  | 3 | | | By the year 2050, we need to dramatically change the way we produce and consume energy if we are to achieve a number of key targets.
We must also consider the implications of those energy choices.
The GAIN Energy Calculator will allow state, local, and federal policy makers, students, researchers, and other interested stakeholders to visualize and model their policy changes and see real-world results based on validated science. | https://gain.ornl.gov/#/ |  | 4 | | | Advanced nuclear energy systems hold enormous potential to lower emissions, create new jobs, and build an even stronger economy. The Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program (ARDP) will speed the demonstration of advanced reactors through cost-shared partnerships with U.S. industry. By rapidly developing these advanced reactors that hold so much promise, we can expand access to clean energy and take advantage of market opportunities before key infrastructure and supply chain capabilities are lost.

The Gateway for Accelerated Innovation in Nuclear (GAIN) just unveiled Milestones in Advanced Nuclear, an interactive website that provides the latest news in the U.S. nuclear power industry. GAIN is industry's gateway into the national labs. Now GAIN is also the gateway into nuclear news.
“Advanced nuclear has been building momentum over the past five years and it is getting difficult to stay current with the latest developments from all facets of our industry," GAIN Director Christine King said. “The website offers a concise description of each item, and why this milestone is important and links to the most recent news for that item."
The milestones were developed with the help of more than 100 people across the U.S. representing the nuclear energy industry, utility executives, and lawmakers.
“This website is a great tool to see our progress as an industry," said Peter Hastings, vice president of Kairos Power, an advanced nuclear reactor developer. “It is extremely helpful to show not only our company's progress but also that of other advanced reactor developers as well as the industry as a whole. This website makes it easy to see the immense opportunity advanced nuclear represents for our clean energy future.".  READ ENTIRE ARTICLE

| 6/10/2021 | |  | | In Service Inspection is a major challenge to consider for future Generation IV
Reactors safety. Therefore, a large focus of R&D work has been performed since
2010 in France for the Sodium Fast Reactor systems (SFR), mainly dedicated to
the inspection of reactor block structures, primary components and circuits, and
Power Conversion System main components (Heat Exchangers). In Service
Inspection requirements have to be taken into account since the early preconceptual design phase, then consolidated through the basic design phase with
more detailed specifications leading to increase the inspection tools ability for
immersed sodium structures of SFRs, at about 200°C (shut down conditions).
Inspection within the main vessel should be performed either with transducers
immersed in sodium (with associated in sodium robotics) and with transducers
located out of sodium medium. Nondestructive Examination, Telemetry and
Imaging are qualified with experimental in-water and then in-sodium testing, using
ultrasonic transducers. Experimental results are then compared to simulations
using French CIVA software platform results. Repair was also part of this program,
with laser system development. This webinar provides a technical overview of this
ISI&R program that involves specific international collaborations done through
GENIV mainly. Of course, it also benefits to other Gen4 systems.
