$40M investment to spur new nuclear developments in Idaho and Wyoming
On Monday, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced that its Economic Development Administration (EDA) intends to award $31 million to the Intermountain-West Nuclear Energy Corridor (INEC) Tech Hub. The Idaho Advanced Energy Consortium (IAEC), the group that leads the INEC Tech Hub, subsequently announced that matching donations from its stakeholder partners will bring the total investment up to $40 million.

A radiation damage model that accounts for neutron spectral differences between irradiation locations has been applied to pertinent data on the change in ductile-to-brittle transition temperature for A302B pressure vessel steel. The resulting correlation supports the contention that such a damage model provides a physically more meaningful measure of exposure than the usually cited neutron flux above 1 MeV. A physically reasonable estimate of the functional dependence of this correlation has been fitted by a least-squares method to these data, and a technique for assigning one-sided tolerance limits is described.
