RIC session focuses on interagency collaboration
Attendees at last week’s 2026 Regulatory Information Conference, hosted by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, saw extensive discussion of new reactor technologies, uprates, fusion, multiunit deployments, supply chain, and much more.
With the industry in a state of rapid evolution, there was much to discuss. Connected to all these topics was one central theme: the ongoing changes at the NRC. With massively shortened timelines, the ADVANCE Act and Executive Order 14300, and new interagency collaboration and authorization pathways in mind, speakers spent much of the RIC exploring what the road ahead looks like for the NRC.

One of the critical issues in the development of Breeding Blankets for the Fusion Demonstration Reactor, DEMO, is the tritium control, particularly in the coolant and the tritium extraction system. To be able to understand and model the tritium behaviour and releases through various interfaces, a code is being developed, following the same approach as for Liquid Metal Fast Breeder Reactors (LMFBRs) for which an efficient tool is already available: KUTIM, here described The new model proposed for fusion purposes will contribute to compare and choose means to reduce the tritium releases and more generally will be a support for design activities for Breeding Blankets.
