Description
Projects proposed under the Infrastructure Revitalization FOA are intended to: • revitalize the U.S. capacity for university-led nuclear R&D by establishing and/or improving infrastructure to align with the advanced reactor technologies being deployed by the U.S. nuclear industry; • support innovative combinations of facilities, equipment, and related capabilities to maximize the value of investments toward R&D; • emphasize support for rapid, lower-cost approaches that can enable advanced-reactor-relevant R&D, education and workforce development prior to any universities establishing advanced research reactors; and • involve consortia among diverse types of institutions to maximize participation and realization of benefits by underrepresented communities that have historically faced challenges to such access. Requests should focus on a goal or capability that significantly adds to the current U.S. capacity to support advanced reactor R&D, education, and workforce development. Applicants must demonstrate the connection among requested pieces of equipment or other project elements toward a key objective or outcome. Applications made of several uncorrelated equipment requests are not of interest. A request should not duplicate existing capabilities. Activities that involve the planning or construction of new university nuclear reactors will not be considered. NE reserves the right to respond to potential shifts in priorities during FY 2025 that may be driven by events, policy developments, or Congressional/budget direction. DOE-NE will factor such considerations into decisions related to the timing and scale of award announcements associated with this FOA.
