Powering the future: How the DOE is fueling nuclear fuel cycle research and development
As global interest in nuclear energy surges, the United States must remain at the forefront of research and development to ensure national energy security, advance nuclear technologies, and promote international cooperation on safety and nonproliferation. A crucial step in achieving this is analyzing how funding and resources are allocated to better understand how to direct future research and development. The Department of Energy has spearheaded this effort by funding hundreds of research projects across the country through the Nuclear Energy University Program (NEUP). This initiative has empowered dozens of universities to collaborate toward a nuclear-friendly future.
Day & Zimmermann (D&Z) is one of the largest family owned, privately held companies in the United States with a network of business divisions specializing in construction, engineering, operations and maintenance, staffing, security, and defense for leading corporations and governments worldwide. D&Z performs maintenance, capital projects, and specialty services at more than half of the country’s nuclear fleet. We specialize in servicing large, geographically dispersed power assets for dozens of utility companies. We work closely with local, state, and federal governments to ensure nuclear energy remains a safe, sustainable part of our domestic energy supply. As a leading craft employer, we annually hire more than 15,000 craft workers nationwide who deliver over 15.7 million hours worked. We partner with high schools, trade schools, building trades, and community colleges to promote careers in the nuclear industry. We also lead the industry in taking legislative action to drive workforce development funding. We believe nuclear skilled craft careers provide generations of high-paying jobs and are crucial to advancing nuclear technology and building modern America.
