DOE Announces $80 Million Available to Support New HALEU Technologies

DOE just announced up to $80 million is available through a new funding opportunity to spur advancements in the process to produce high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU). The funding will support industry partners developing innovative technologies and approaches to strengthen the HALEU supply chain in the United States. DOE is looking for applications that address technology gaps, enhance current processes to produce HALEU, and advance new technologies that could reduce risk, increase production, or reduce costs. Funding will support demonstration projects at engineering or pilot scale, as well as earlier stage applied research and development projects. Applications are due by 5:00 p.m. EST on February 26, 2025.

DOE Hosting Informational Webinar for Capacity Building for Energy Assets

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is hosting a Capacity Building for Energy Assets Informational Webinar. There will be many discussions to explore capacity building through new alternatives such as (but not limited to) data centers, nuclear power, and critical mineral processing to maintain jobs and the tax base while decarbonizing the economy, while also highlighting the workforce development challenges and needs. The workshop will also spotlight funding opportunities through various government agencies for these purposes.

Three Mile Island, Notorious in Nuclear Power’s Past, May Herald Its Future

The concrete cooling towers that rise from a sliver of land south of Pennsylvania’s capital became symbols nearly a half-century ago of the risks of nuclear energy.

Now, a plan to restart one of the two reactors at Three Mile Island is at the leading edge of efforts to greatly expand the country’s reliance on atomic fission to meet the growing power demands of homes, businesses and data centers.

International Nuclear Safeguards and Security by Design Workshop

The Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) is organizing a three-day Safeguards and Security by Design (SSeBD) Workshop (September 10-12, 2024) in Oak Ridge, TN for U.S. advanced and small modular reactor vendors and developers that are seeking to deploy their technologies in the U.S. and internationally. The workshop will focus on the technical measures that can be applied during the planning and design stages to increase physical protection and security system efficacy to meet international security guidance and highlight how designers can meet international nuclear safeguards requirements, which are different from the United States’ requirements.
