NRC to Regulate Fusion Energy Systems
Based on Existing Nuclear Materials Licensing
10 C.F.R. Part 30 is Accepted
Read the (10 CFR Part 30) Code for Regulations for Fusion Energy
Moving Away from (10 CFR Part 50) Nuclear Fission Code Regulations
Today, Friday, April 14th, 2023, The Commission has approved the staff’s -SECY-23-0001- Option 2 to license and regulate fusion energy systems under the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s byproduct material framework contained in 10 C.F.R. Part 30, “Rules of General Applicability to Domestic Licensing of Byproduct Material,” and associated regulations.
NRC Chair Christopher T. Hanson- “Dozens of companies are developing pilot-scale commercial fusion designs, and while the technology’s precise future in the United States is uncertain, the agency should provide as much regulatory certainty as possible given what we know today. Licensing near-term fusion energy systems under a byproduct material framework will protect public health and safety with a technology-neutral, scalable regulatory approach.”
For 13-years, The Energy Innovation Summit has offered a unique, three-day program aimed at moving transformational energy technologies out of the lab and into the market.
