Proposed FY 2027 DOE, NRC budgets ask for less
The White House is requesting $1.5 billion for the Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy in the fiscal year 2027 budget proposal, about 9 percent less than the previous year.
The request from the Trump administration is one of several associated with nuclear energy in the proposal, which was released Friday. Congress still must review and vote on the budget.

Alternate Chair:
Stephen M. Bajorek (USNRC)
Session Organizer:
Light-water cooled Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) offer tremendous potential for near-term deployment due to their simplified design, lower costs and passive safety concepts. While light-water reactor technology is well-understood and has a large supporting database challenges remain. This panel will discuss the thermal-hydraulics of SMR and comment on the technical issues and opportunities.
