Core Power, MIT ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß Initiative and the Idaho National Laboratory have been granted research funds by the US Department of ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß's Nuclear ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß University Program for a three-year study into the development of offshore floating nuclear power generation in the USA.

Thorizon of the Netherlands has raised EUR12.5 million (USD12.4 million) for the development of a thorium molten salt reactor. Thorizon is a spin-off from the Nuclear Research and Consultancy Group, the organisation that operates the High Flux Reactor in Petten.

The American Bureau of Shipping has announced it is to research barriers to the adoption of advanced nuclear propulsion on commercial vessels under a research contract awarded by the US Department of ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß. The organisation is also supporting separate research into molten salt reactors.

Two identical remotely-operated manipulators used to maintain the Joint European Torus fusion energy machine at the Culham Science Centre in Oxfordshire, UK, are being tested in a series of practice 'rescue missions', where each saves its stranded twin.

The UK’s National Nuclear Laboratory and Bangor University in north Wales have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to work together to advance education and research in nuclear energy, including on new and innovative fuels, co-generation and nuclear thermal hydraulics.

The US Department of ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß has issued its Record of Decision on the Final Environmental Impact Statement for the sodium-cooled fast neutron reactor at Idaho National Laboratory. If appropriated by Congress, the Versatile Test Reactor would be the first fast spectrum test reactor to operate in the United States in nearly three decades.

The technology built by National Technical Systems will allow NuScale Power Corporation to mimic the range of environmental conditions under which its small modular reactors are required to function to meet US Nuclear Regulatory Commission and plant-specific requirements.

Westinghouse Electric Company and France's EDF are to jointly explore the functionalities of Westinghouse's EnCore accident-tolerant fuel technology. Westinghouse will study the use of the fuel in an EDF reactor for potential deployment across the EDF nuclear fleet after 2030.

The UK Atomic ¶¶Òõ´«Ã½ÔÚÏß Authority and the USA's Commonwealth Fusion Systems have signed a five-year Collaboration Framework Agreement aimed at advancing commercial fusion energy.

The plant, designed by Kairos Power and based at the Materion campus in Elmore, Ohio in the USA, will produce high-purity fluoride salt coolant to be used in high-temperature molten salt reactors.

Fusion energy company TAE Technologies has received investments to fund the construction of its sixth-generation research reactor that it says will demonstrate the viability of net energy from TAE's approach. The announcement came as TAE's fifth-generation reactor, Norman, has sustained stable plasma at more than 75 million degrees Celsius, 250% higher than its original goal.

The Global Fusion Industry in 2022 report says that USD2.83 billion of investment was declared by private nuclear fusion companies over the past year.
