The NSUF is seeking input on needs and recommendations to assist DOE-NE in determining what capabilities supporting research are of highest interest to the nuclear energy (NE) research community over the next 1, 3, and 5 years. This is an informal request from the NSUF and is intended to supplement the official annual request for information from DOE-NE. The information provided has the potential to influence DOE-NE infrastructure investments.
The input being sought includes capability descriptions, potential scientific impact, programmatic importance, anticipated utilization, and costs (capital investment, installation, and operating and maintenance [O&M]). Input is requested not only for new capabilities but also replacement or expanded capabilities. It is envisioned that selected capabilities might be considered for inclusion in the NSUF.
Click on the link below to enter your input. Up to three capabilities for each 1, 3, and 5 year outlooks will be accepted. Please submit your information to NSUF by 5:00 p.m., ET, April 23, 2020.
