Launching into tomorrow: NRIC guides new era of research and deployment
In June 2025, the Department of Energy announced the Reactor Pilot Program, an authorization pathway that allowed reactor developers to partner with the DOE to get first-of-a-kind (FOAK) reactors built and tested. Soon after, the DOE rolled out a complementary Fuel Line Pilot Program, which aimed to fast-track fuel projects. In all, 20 projects were accepted into the new programs.

The tensile properties of Incoloy-800 were studied after irradiation in either thermal-fast or fast-neutron spectrums, A general decrease in elevated temperature postirradiation ductility was observed. Similar radiation-induced embrittlement occurred for both thermal-fast and fast-neutron irradiation. The observed embrittlement was more dependent on postirradiation test temperature than irradiation temperature.
