AI summary

This document is a request for information, not a funding opportunity, and DOE says it does not currently intend to make any contract or financial assistance award from it. It asks for input to shape future competitive university research funding for the Office of Nuclear Energy, including research topics, solicitation design, and university engagement. It seeks responses from educational institutions, national laboratories, utilities, private industry, and other interested parties. The text notes that future university research awards have been increased up to $1,000,000 for NEUP R&D projects, but this RFI itself has no award count, cost share, or geographic restriction stated.
