International Nuclear Energy Act of 2025

The International Nuclear Energy Act of 2025 aims to establish a unified federal strategy to promote the export of U.S. civil nuclear technology. It proposes creating a new office within the Executive Branch, led by a Director of Nuclear Energy Export Policy, to coordinate international sales, streamline licensing for advanced reactors, and harmonize regulations with partner nations. The bill also seeks to establish a Nuclear Exports Working Group to develop a 10-year trade strategy and a Strategic Infrastructure Fund to help finance large-scale nuclear projects that are critical to national security.

If enacted, the bill would provide financial assistance and technical training to countries looking to start or expand their own nuclear energy programs. By offering American alternatives to state-backed nuclear industries in Russia and China, the legislation intends to secure long-term diplomatic and economic partnerships. For U.S. citizens, this could lead to increased domestic job growth in the high-tech energy sector and a more prominent role for the United States in setting global standards for nuclear safety, security, and nonproliferation.
