SUMMARY:Bankability to Back End: Planning for the Full Advanced Reactor Lifecycle
LOCATION:
DESCRIPTION:2026 Nuclear Energy Conference & Expo\n\nRead More: https://nuclearenergyconference.org/session/view-99/\n\n<p>Used Fuel Storage & Recycling: Advanced reactors may introduce new used fuel characteristics, storage requirements, transportation needs, and potential recycling opportunities. This panel examines how backend fuel cycle planning affects reactor deployment, including interim storage, transportation cask development, recycling technologies, waste minimization, regulatory pathways, and the economics of recycling versus direct disposal.</p><p>\n\nWhat you'll gain: </p><p>Understand the near-term and long-term backend fuel cycle considerations for advanced reactors; learn how storage, transportation, recycling, and disposal strategies can influence project planning; and explore how regulatory, technical, and economic factors shape the feasibility of advanced fuel cycle solutions.</p><p>\n\nWho should attend: </p><p>Advanced reactor developers planning fuel cycle backend strategies, fuel cycle companies and waste management specialists, DOE and NRC staff working on fuel cycle issues, environmental and waste management professionals, nuclear engineers, and fuel cycle analysts.</p>
