The Department of Energy's (DOE) Office of Nuclear Energy's (NE)
approach to advanced reactor research and development (R&D)
focuses on three reactor technologies -- high-temperature
gas-cooled reactors, sodium-cooled fast reactors, and
fluoride-salt-cooled high-temperature reactors -- but NE is also
funding research into other advanced reactor technologies. NE's
approach is to conduct research in support of multiple advanced
reactor technologies, while collaborating with industry and
academia, with the ultimate goal for industry to take the results
of NE's research to the next step of development and
commercialization. This book describes NE's approach to advanced
nuclear reactor R&D and examines how NE plans and prioritizes
its advanced reactor R&D activities, including deploying an
advanced reactor. This book also discusses the DOE's International
Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) Agreement. It examines
how and why the estimated costs and schedule of the U.S. ITER
Project have changed since 2006; the reliability of DOE's current
cost and schedule estimates; and actions DOE has taken to reduce
U.S. ITER Project costs and plan for their impact on the overall
U.S. fusion program.
