As the U.S. looks to take back global nuclear leadership through the next generation of advanced nuclear
\ntechnologies, it is imperative that advanced nuclear and fast neutron testing capabilities are made available
\nto facilitate R&D and regulatory efforts. These testing capabilities will be needed to develop advanced fuels
\nand materials that will be required to make advanced nuclear reactor designs a reality. The Versatile Test
\nReactor (VTR) is a fast neutron testing facility that was created to address domestic U.S. fast neutron
\ntesting needs. The VTR has undergone significant progress in terms of design and code standardization,
\nwith many of the testing capabilities being developed. Furthermore, the VTR is the first project to apply the
\nLicensing Modernization Project, which may help further accelerate further licensing efforts for the future
\nof the industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
