Five companies, five bases: The Army’s Janus Program takes shape
Between the Nuclear Lifecycle Innovation Campuses and Nuclear Energy Launch Pad programs, August has already been a busy month for federal partnerships with the nuclear industry.
That trend continues: On Wednesday, the Department of the Army announced that it has selected five nuclear reactor developers—Antares Nuclear, BWXT Advanced Technologies, General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems, Radiant Industries, and Westinghouse Government Services—each paired with a different military installation, for its Janus Program.
This week, the nuclear community descended on Dallas, Texas, for the second annual Nuclear Energy Conference and Expo, the premier industry-focused nuclear conference cohosted by the American Nuclear Society and the Nuclear Energy Institute. Among the plenary panelists was Jeff Waksman, principal deputy assistant secretary of the Army for installations, energy, and environment. Waksman has been closely involved in the development of the Janus Program, and the morning before the program’s new selections were unveiled, he provided insights on its ultimate goals at NECX 2026.

For decades, nuclear technology has quietly powered progress: clean energy, advanced isotope research, lifesaving medical treatments, space applications, national security, and more. As nuclear reemerges in public conversation, we’re ready to build bigger and better than ever before. The blueprints are bold—and you’re a part of the design.
Whether you’re new to the industry or a seasoned expert, the 2025 ANS Winter Conference & Expo is your chance to connect, learn, and collaborate with every sector of nuclear.
Executive sessions will bring you face-to-face with senior officials from the administration and Congress as they unpack the latest executive orders.
Explore visionary strategies with industry leaders to grow the workforce, revitalize supply chains, accelerate commercialization, and amplify public advocacy.
Engage with cutting-edge technologies on the exhibit floor and exchange ideas that will shape a new nuclear century.
This is where the future takes form. Together, we’re creating real solutions for the challenges and opportunities ahead. Step into the moment, shape the conversation, and join us in Building the Nuclear Century at the 2025 ANS Winter Conference & Expo in Washington, D.C.
