; and (B) a fusion reactor. (2) Demonstration project The term demonstration project means an advanced nuclear reactor operated— (A) as part of the power generation facilities of an electric utility system; or (B) in any other manner for the purpose of demonstrating the suitability for commercial application of the advanced nuclear reactor. (b) Purpose The purpose of this section is to direct the Secretary, as soon as practicable after the date of enactment of this section, to advance the research and development of domestic advanced, affordable, and clean nuclear energy by— (1) demonstrating different advanced nuclear reactor technologies that could be used by the private sector to produce— (A) emission-free power at a cost of $60 per mWh or less; (B) heat for community heating, industrial purposes, or synthetic fuel production; (C) remote or off-grid energy supply; or (D) backup or mission-critical power supplies; (2) developing subgoals for nuclear energy research programs that would accomplish the goals of the demonstration projects carried out under subsection (c); (3) identifying research areas that the private sector is unable or unwilling to undertake due to the cost of, or risks associated with, the research; and (4) facilitating the access of the private sector— (A) to Federal research facilities and personnel; and (B) to the results of research relating to civil nuclear technology funded by the Federal Government. (c) Demonstration projects (1) In general The Secretary shall, to the maximum extent practicable— (A) complete not fewer than 2 advanced nuclear reactor demonstration projects by not later than December 31, 2025
