We build advanced nuclear reactors for this century
The National Reactor Innovation Center (NRIC) accelerates the demonstration and deployment of advanced nuclear energy through our mission to inspire stakeholders and the public, empower innovators, and deliver successful outcomes.
NRIC is a national Department of Energy program led by Idaho National Laboratory, allowing collaborators to harness the world-class capabilities of the U.S. National Laboratory System. NRIC supports the construction and demonstration of advanced reactor systems through a suite of services and capabilities. We are charged with and committed to demonstrating advanced reactors by the end of 2025.
Our technologies help people and the planet
NRIC is taking real, urgent, and concrete action towards getting climate technologies to market as soon as possible to protect people and the planet. Advanced reactors will accelerate the transition to clean energy and mitigate climate change. We are positioning the U.S. for ongoing innovation in nuclear energy to enable abundant and affordable clean energy for all, including low-income and marginalized communities.
Innovative designs for cutting-edge applications
NRIC provides a platform for communities, innovators, and the U.S. national laboratory system to engage, collaborate, and innovate on cutting-edge advanced nuclear technologies and applications.
Advanced nuclear technologies will serve new sectors of the economy by providing more than just clean electricity.
This includes decarbonized heat generation, water desalination, and hydrogen production. Hybrid energy systems will benefit from the flexible output of advanced nuclear plants that can balance renewables and deliver low-carbon electricity in all conditions. Innovative applications for maritime propulsion and space technologies will provide unmatched reliability and push the frontiers of clean energy.
Our Team
The NRIC team is passionate and guided by its mission. We rely on teamwork to overcome our biggest challenges and believe that diversity and inclusion are directly responsible for better outcomes. We are committed to the safety of ourselves, our peers, and our community. We are dedicated to protecting the natural environment today and for generations to come.
