LWRS 2019 Accomplishments Report
Nuclear energy is an important part of supplying our nation’s energy—safely, dependably, and economically—with reduced carbon dioxide emissions. The United States (U.S.) Department of Energy-Office of Nuclear Energy (DOE-NE) supports a strong and viable domestic nuclear industry. In collaboration with industry programs, the Light Water Reactor Sustainability (LWRS) Program supports the continued operation of the commercial fleet of nuclear power plants. DOE’s role in this program focuses on enhancing the safe, efficient, and economical performance of the nation’s nuclear fleet. This report describes the accomplishments of the LWRS Program during Fiscal Year 2019. DOE-NE’s0F primary mission is to advance nuclear power as a resource capable of making major contributions in meeting the nation’s energy supply, environmental, and energy security needs. Under the guidance of three research objectives, NE resolves barriers to technical, cost, safety, security, and proliferation resistance through early stage research, development, and demonstration (RD&D) to: • Enhance the long-term viability and competitiveness of the existing U.S. reactor fleet • Develop an advanced reactor pipeline • Implement and maintain national strategic fuel-cycle and supply-chain infrastructures.

NASA total quality management 1989 accomplishments report
NASA and contractor employees achieved many notable improvements in 1989. The highlights of those improvements, described in this seventh annual Accomplishments Report, demonstrate that the people who support NASA's activities are getting more involved in quality and continuous improvement efforts. Their gains solidly support NASA's and this Nation's goal to remain a leader in space exploration and in world-wide market competition, and, when communicated to others through avenues such as this report, foster improvement efforts across government and industry. The principles in practice which led to these process refinements are important cultural elements to any organization's productivity and quality efforts. The categories in this report reflect NASA principles set forth in the 1980's and are more commonly known today as Total Quality Management (TQM): top management leadership and support; strategic planning; focus on the customer; employee training and recognition; employee empowerment and teamwork; measurement and analysis; and quality assurance.

2022 Accomplishments Report Template
Chromium-doped UO 2 fuels is an industrially important Accident Tolerant Fuel (ATF) due to the ability to increase the average grain size relative to standard UO 2 . However, there is a lack of knowledge of the thermophysical properties of these doped fuels, which is necessary for accurately modeling the in-pile performance. The work accomplished this FY focused on developing large grain Cr-doped UO 2 pellets as a function of Cr content and subsequently measuring the thermophysical and mechanical properties. The microstructural variations were also investigated to evaluate chromium formation within the microstructure of the sintered pellets.

Employing bacterial microcompartments to create privileged redox pools for biofuel production (Final report: Accomplishments)
Over the award period we made progress on all three objectives. We completed our goal of understanding the impact of cofactor recycling on pathway performance for a propanediol-related pathway (Objective 1) and coupled this data with kinetic metabolic models developed in Objective 3, resulting in several products (4 published research articles, 1 review and 3 other research manuscripts in preparation). We completed half of Objective 2 but found the pathway was incompatible with compartmentalization, which is an important but unexpected result. The details are relayed in the following sections, grouped by objective and task as applicable.

Advancing Geothermal Research: Fiscal Year 2023 Accomplishments Report
Geothermal energy has delivered renewable power for more than 100 years, and renewable heat for far longer, but recent research and advancements have shown that the potential of geothermal is largely untapped. With the ability to provide 24/7 renewable electricity, heating/ cooling, and storage - plus the potential to access critical minerals and more - the Earth's subsurface is a powerhouse ready to be tapped. Investors and leaders across both the public and private sectors are recognizing the unique value of geothermal, and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) is leading the way by supporting the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Geothermal Technologies Office (GTO) in advancing geothermal energy options today and strategically planning for tomorrow. In support of this objective during fiscal year 2023 (FY23), NREL expanded its collaborations with public and private partners, led impactful research in key technology and energy system areas, demonstrated leadership in the sector, and increased stakeholder engagement and outreach efforts.
