DOE ARC Program

Advanced Reactor Concepts

DOE ARC Program funds early-stage advanced reactor concepts for technical maturation.

Advanced Reactor Concepts provides grants up to $3M per project for pre-conceptual designs. Focuses on non-LWR tech like MSR, fast reactors. Recent awards support 10+ innovators.

Why it matters now

ARC de-risks microreactors for 2026 pilots amid HALEU ramp-up. Ties to data center demand via tech readiness.
