International Nuclear Energy Act of 2025

The International Nuclear Energy Act of 2025 establishes a new U.S. government coordination structure to support international nuclear energy cooperation. It creates an Office of the Assistant to the President and Director for International Nuclear Energy Export Policy and a Nuclear Exports Working Group to coordinate civil nuclear exports. The bill authorizes financial assistance for "embarking civil nuclear nations" (countries developing nuclear energy programs) to help them build technical capacity and establish safety, security, and regulatory frameworks. It also establishes a biennial conference on nuclear safety and security, and creates mechanisms for cooperative financing relationships with ally nations to support U.S. nuclear exports.
