Second round of Launch Pad selections includes eight newcomers
The National Reactor Innovation Center at Idaho National Laboratory has announced 13 project selections across 12 companies for the Nuclear Energy Launch Pad, a Department of Energy–led program that integrates reactor and fuel facility authorization, testing, and deployment support for private nuclear developers.
The Launch Pad emerged from the Reactor Pilot Program and Fuel Line Pilot Program.
According to INL, projects selected include reactor development and nuclear fuel cycle advancements, including fabrication, enrichment, and conversion technologies.

The status of experiments with radio-frequency (rf) heating of fusion devices and the existing plans for the next round of rf heating experiments were surveyed as the basis for an rf R&D program plan for the U.S. Department of Energy. These data are presented in tabular form, with an emphasis on the technological requirements for rf sources and transmission systems. Data for major plasma containment devices in the United States were gathered directly. Data for international devices were principally taken from published literature. The data represent the status of these experiments as of January 1, 1983.
