The Advanced Methods for Manufacturing newsletter includes updated program and research projects information.
Advanced Sensors and Instrumentation (ASI) is one program element of NEET Crosscutting Technology Development (CTD) being carried out to foster the research and development required to develop and deploy innovative and advanced sensors, instrumentation, control capabilities, and analytics for current and future nuclear energy systems, and to enable the advanced technologies essential to NE’s research and development (R&D) efforts needed to realize mission goals. Since fiscal year (FY) 2011, NEET-ASI has funded 41 projects competitively for a total of $34,563,523. These projects have been successful in advancing the state of the art for measuring, controlling, and broadly managing nuclear energy systems being developed by the DOE-NE.
