The final Rapid Turnaround Experiment (RTE) call for fiscal year 2024 will open Monday, June 3 at 8 a.m. MDT! ⚛ The RTE award process offers an avenue for researchers to perform irradiation effects studies of limited scope on nuclear fuels and materials of interest utilizing NSUF facilities. RTE proposals are typically solicited and awarded three times per year. They are reviewed and evaluated for technical merit, relevancy and feasibility. The number of awards is dependent on the availability of funding. Proposals must support the Office of Nuclear Energy, U.S. Department of Energy mission. Information about RTE rules and requirements: ➡ https://lnkd.in/gZUWQB26 Information on the RTE technical review process: ➡ https://lnkd.in/gN6-fMyU 📅 FY24 3rd call proposal submittal and review schedule: June 27 (4 p.m. MDT): Proposal due date  August 1 (estimated): Selection review completed October 1 (estimated): Proposals awarded *Q&A and RTE seminar to be announced at a later date.

Lol, further proof of the article "Nuclear Energy & Free Market Capitalism Aren't Compatible": France's new EDF reactors (now state-owned) will cost 30% more. Fair chance even that won't be it in the end 😄 https://lnkd.in/dfbSNAeV This article explains why nuclear energy will probably never flourish again: https://lnkd.in/dXT2hC89

⚛️ The #ERRANuclearForum will kick off with a keynote address on the Role of #NuclearEnergy in Achieving #NetZero by Mr. Keisuke Sadamori to be followed by a high level panel on policies facilitating deployment of new #NuclearPower plants and units. ➡️ Read more and register for the event at: https://lnkd.in/gty9YBGM Sama Bilbao y Leon, Maciej Bando, Carl Berglöf, Tim Echols, Clara Poletti World Nuclear Association, International Energy Agency (IEA), ARERA - Autorità di Regolazione per Energia Reti e Ambiente, Ministerstwo Klimatu i Środowiska

⚛️📢 Our World Nuclear Performance Report 2023 is out, and it provides an up-to-date picture of the #nuclear power sector, both for generation of electricity from reactors in operation today, and reactors currently under construction. ⚛️ Watch the short video with Jonathan Cobb, the writer of the report, presenting it. https://lnkd.in/eK-iCNEa

Adam, couldn’t agree with you more. Too much focus on isolated challenges impeding nuclear: financing, regulatory, energy market structure, commercial and risk-allocation models, supply chain readiness, human resource development, policy alignment, public acceptance, etc. Success will not come from solving any one, or two or three particular issues. We need to solve ALL of these issues in a comprehensive manner. Nuclear financing (access to competitive market capital resources) is uniquely interrelated to all of the other impediments. That is why we created the IBNI as a comprehensive multi-dimensional solution to all of the challenges that nuclear faces, well beyond financing. 2050 Net Zero needs nuclear. Nuclear needs IBNI .

Industry must seize the opportunities arising from a global change in the perception of nuclear energy, a panel session agreed during a side event at the World Energy Congress 2024. However, wide-scale collaboration is needed to ensure the industry can meet the expected growth in demand for nuclear power technology: https://lnkd.in/eEeDiqX3
