Nuclear Portfolio at ARPA-E Jenifer Shafer March 30, 2023
ARPA-E Advanced Nuclear Fission Portfolio Fission ~$160M overall investment
- MEITNER (2018)
- Can we greatly reduce AR CapEx?
- GEMINA (2020)
- Can we greatly reduce AR OpEx?
- ONWARDS (2021) Transmutation
- Can we greatly minimize the disposal impact of AR wastes?
- CURIE (2022)
- Can we improve the cost and monitoring of UNF (used nuclear fuel) reprocessing?
- Transmutation
- Active area of program development Attentive to commercialization & deployment March 30, 2023 Nuclear l ARPA-E 2
MEITNER (Modeling-Enhanced Innovations Trailblazing Nuclear Energy Reinvigoration)
Goal: Develop and demonstrate technologies that greatly improve advanced reactor performance MEITNER is supporting transformative technologies Metric Units State-of-the-Art for AR plant designs that simultaneously achieve:
Overnight construction cost $/We 2-7
- Low overnight construction cost
- Largely autonomous operations to staffing level On-site construction time Months > 60
- Safety when considering Total staffing level (on-site & off-FTE/GWe 450-750
- time before intervention in an accident site)
- potential for public exposure to radiation Emergency planning zone (EPZ) Miles 10 and 50
- Very short on-site construction time Time before human response
- Proliferation resistance via safeguards by design required for an accident Days 3
- The ability to achieve either or both:
- easy electrical grid integration with intermittent Onsite backup power kWe > 0 kW sources such as wind and solar Ramp rate without steam bypass power capacity/min 5%
- availability to provide economical industrial Process heat temperature ºC N/A process heat March 30, 2023 Nuclear l ARPA-E 3
GEMINA (Generating Electricity Managed by Intelligent Nuclear Assets)
Goal: Develop the tools and cost basis for ARs to achieve fixed O&M costs of
$2/MWh without shifting costs to other parts of LCOE Awardee teams are developing the following for one or more of the most promising AR designs:
- Digital twins for advanced reactor systems
- Relevant cyber physical systems
- O&M approaches for advanced reactors
- Cost models and design updates March 30, 2023 Nuclear l ARPA-E 4
ONWARDS (Optimizing Nuclear Waste and Advanced Reactor Disposal Systems)
Goal: Develop technologies to significantly minimize the disposal impact of wastes from ARs while maintaining disposal costs in the range of $1/MWh ONWARDS seeks to support the development of technologies that enable:
- 10x reduction in waste volumes or repository footprint with no weakening of safeguards standards
- Better than 1% accuracy in fissile mass measurement in UNF processing in high-radiation backgrounds
- Improving proliferation resistance of U and TRU materials recycling
- No pure fissile material streams produced during processing (< 0.1% actinides by mass in waste streams)
- High performance waste forms for AR HLW across multiple disposal environments.
The production of new waste streams is required to be minimal relative to a once-through fuel cycle and have an established path to a robust waste form or final disposition.
March 30, 2023 Nuclear l ARPA-E 5
CURIE (Converting UNF Radioisotopes Into Energy)
Goal: Enable commercially viable reprocessing of used nuclear fuel (UNF) from the current light water reactor (LWR) fleet by resolving key gaps/barriers in reprocessing technologies, process monitoring, and facility design Global Metrics
- 1. significantly (i.e., at least an order of magnitude) reduce the volume of LWR HLW requiring permanent disposal,
- 2. maintain disposal costs in the range of 0.1¢/kilowatt-hour (kWh)4,
- 3. provide a 1¢/kWh5 fuel cost for a 200 metric tons heavy metal (MTHM)/yr nth-of-a-kind (NOAK) facility,
- 4. in situ SNM process monitoring approaches that predict, within 1% uncertainty and under representative conditions, the post-process material accountancy, and
- 5. development of UNF separations which do not produce pure plutonium streams March 30, 2023 Nuclear l ARPA-E 6
