As far as I know LocalReport cannot be exported to HTML (only Excel,Word and PDF are available). But if you are still interested in export you can use following

Dim Report = New LocalReport

prepare report the same way as for viewing (Datasource for RDL reports with ReportViewer)

Dim warnings As Warning() = Nothing
Dim streamids As String() = Nothing
Dim mimeType As String = Nothing
Dim encoding As String = Nothing
Dim extension As String = Nothing
Dim bytes As Byte() = Nothing
bytes = Report.Render(RenderFormat, Nothing, mimeType, encoding, extension, streamids, warnings)
Using fs As New IO.FileStream(RepPath, IO.FileMode.Create)
  fs.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length)
  fs.Close()
  ReDim bytes(0)
end Using

You can get list of available extensions with Report.ListRenderingExtensions

ServerReport solution is similar, but more possible export formats is available.
