DOE issues RFI for reuse of SRS heavy water
The Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management has issued a request for information for industry input about the best ways to reuse and repurpose as much as 530,000 gallons of heavy water that is currently being stored at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina. The deadline to submit responses to the RFI is September 21.
Detailed information about the RFI, including contact information and instructions for submissions, was published in the Federal Register. Responses can be emailed to heavywaterrfi@doe.gov with the subject line “EM Heavy Water RFI Collaboration Response.”

Director of Technology Strategy
USNC
Dr. Cristian Rabiti joined USNC as Director of Technology Strategy. He is currently focused on developing the U.S. market and framing the Micro Modular Reactor technology in the context of the integrated energy systems. He is also engaged in modeling and simulation activities to support the licensing of Micro Modular Reactors.
Prior to joining USNC, Dr. Rabiti worked at Idaho National Laboratory where he led the development and application of tools for technoeconomic analysis of integrated energy systems. He explored how nuclear energy could be used to achieve a decarbonized and affordable U.S. energy system. Previously, he was involved in software tool development for nuclear reactor core simulations. Before joining Idaho National Laboratory, he served as a neutron transport software developer at Argonne National Laboratory.
Dr. Rabiti received a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from the University of Stuttgart in Germany, and an Executive MBA from IE Business School in Madrid.
