Establishing the advanced nuclear energy industry in America is great for our own energy security, necessary on any path toward net-zero, and also provides a once-in-a-generation opportunity to corner a global export market. This multi-billion-dollar market can be shaped by scientists, engineers, and experts aligned with American values.

With advanced nuclear energy, the United States and its allies can achieve true energy security independent from the global fossil fuel markets driving global instability. Our ability to develop a homegrown industry with robust supply chains will provide us the opportunity of becoming a global leader in producing safe, clean, carbon-free energy.

At the same time, efforts by Russia and China to export their nuclear technologies pose challenges to our geopolitical interests and democratic values. Exporting flexible, reliable, and safer U.S. advanced reactors globally will enable us to establish and assert our leadership and international presence in this critical market.
