Study will help inform industry and prepare for growing electricity demand

Researchers at DOE’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory are using computers to improve the effectiveness of fusion devices called stellarators.

HALEU is enriched between 5% and 20% in U-235 and is required for most U.S. advanced reactors to achieve smaller designs.

A typical nuclear reactor can provide enough power to cook around 2.5 million turkeys on Thanksgiving Day.

The United States is going to need a lot of high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) in the coming years to support the development and deployment of advanced reactors.

Tran's work focuses on developing a novel algorithm to reconstruct a 3D distribution of an accelerator beam.

Since particle accelerators’ performance can decline over time, scientists are using machine learning to maximize accelerators’ precision.

The people that build, operate, and maintain nuclear power plants are highly trained, hard-working, and well-paid. But you don’t have to be an engineer to work in nuclear energy.

Through the Lab Embedded Entrepreneurship Program (LEEP), the Office of Electricity (OE) is thrilled to sponsor two new promising entrepreneurs with game-changing energy storage and electric grid innovations.

U.S. targets map out 200 GW of new nuclear capacity by 2050.
