March 4 – 5, 2025

Meeting Objectives:

This Program Review will be focused on ongoing progress for each Technical Focus Area and discussion of path forward for the remainder of FY25. Discussions will highlight:

• Accomplishments to date and progress on key efforts
• Issues/concerns related to meeting FY25 goals and M2 milestones
• Potential collaboration with other NE programs
• Initial thoughts on priorities for FY26 and beyond
• Review participant questions

Program Vision:

Through cross-cutting research and development and technology demonstration support, the Microreactor Program will enable broad deployment of microreactor technology by:

• Achieve technological breakthroughs for key features of microreactors
• Identifying and addressing technology solutions to improve the economic viability and licensing readiness of microreactors
• Enable successful demonstrations of multiple domestic commercial microreactors

Program Objectives:

1. Address critical, cross-cutting R&D needs that require unique national lab or university expertise or capabilities
2. Develop R&D infrastructure to support design, demonstration, regulatory issue resolution, and M&S code validation
3. Develop advanced technologies that enable improvements in microreactor viability
