On May 23, 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order (EO) 14302, directing that the official policy of the United States government is to promote and expedite the expansion of nuclear energy technology and associated industries. The EO sets ambitious goals focused on adding new GWs to the grid through uprates and new large nuclear projects, improving nuclear fuel supply chains, and addressing national spent nuclear fuel management challenges. Understanding how companies aim to support these ambitious goals and how the transformational issues like nuclear waste management could be tackled will be paramount to potential collaborators, advocates, vendors, and others interested in the growth of nuclear energy in the United States.
