Prototype of core for USS Nautilus Experimental Breeder Reactor Number 1 in Idaho, the first reactor to generate a usable amount of electricity. Idaho National Laboratory (INL) is one of the national laboratories of the United States Department of Energy and is managed by the Battelle Energy Alliance.
Since 1951, fifty-two reactors have been built on the grounds of what was originally the Atomic Energy Commission's National Reactor Testing Station, currently the location of the U.S. Department of Energy's Idaho National Laboratory (INL). Constructed in 1967, the ATR is the second-oldest of three reactors still in operation at the site. [2]
The Experimental Breeder Reactor II. Experimental Breeder Reactor-II (EBR-II) was a sodium-cooled fast reactor designed, built and operated by Argonne National Laboratory at the National Reactor Testing Station in Idaho. It was shut down in 1994. Custody of the reactor was transferred to Idaho National Laboratory after its founding in 2005.
If Congress provides funding for the reactor, it will be the first of its kind to operate in the U.S. in nearly 30 years. Idaho National Laboratory ‘leads the way,’ chosen to host new nuclear ...
Idaho National Laboratory turns 75 this year. Here’s a look back at past accomplishments and toward future challenges. | Opinion
TREAT was designed by Argonne National Laboratory, [2] and is located at the Idaho National Laboratory. Since original construction, the facility had additions or systems upgrades in 1963, 1972, 1982, and 1988. The 1988 addition was extensive, and included upgrades of most of the instrumentation and control systems. [3] TREAT Reactor (south side)
The company is also moving forward with site work at Idaho National Laboratory, where it plans to deploy its first 15-MW reactor in late 2027. That said, many experts don't see SMRs being widely ...
The land-based nuclear reactor was built at the National Reactor Testing Station, later called Idaho National Engineering Laboratory near Arco, Idaho. [1] The plant was the prototype for the power system of USS Nautilus, the world's first nuclear-powered submarine, which used the improved S2W reactor.
