Five companies receive DOE awards for HALEU transport packages
Five companies are the recipients of Department of Energy awards to support the development, modification, and licensing of transportation packages for high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) fuel. HALEU, which is enriched between 5 percent and 20 percent, is the type of fuel required for the operation of many of the small advanced nuclear reactors that are being designed and developed by U.S. companies.
The Consortium for Advanced Simulation of Light Water Reactors Virtual Meeting
Technical Session|Panel|Sponsored by Advanced Modeling Applications

The Consortium for Advanced Simulation of Light Water Reactors (CASL) was founded in July 2010 as a Department of Energy (DOE) Energy Innovation Hub with the mission to develop, apply, and deploy advanced modeling and simulation (M&S) technologies to address operational and safety performance challenges impacting the performance of the Light Water Reactor fleet. Over its history CASL developed, evolved and executed a unique model encompassing governance, program management, technical leadership, external science and industry oversight, and technical deliverables. This panel focuses on lessons learned from leaders within the CASL program representing perspectives from the DOE laboratories, academia and industry.
