The International Nuclear Energy Act of 2025 creates a comprehensive U.S. strategy to promote American nuclear technology exports to friendly nations while competing with Russian and Chinese nuclear programs globally. The bill establishes a new White House office to coordinate nuclear export policy and creates working groups to develop a 10-year trade strategy with specific export targets for nuclear technologies and materials. It authorizes $21 million over five years (2026-2030) to fund nuclear cooperation programs, including up to $5.5 million annually per country in grants to help developing nations build their nuclear energy capabilities through technical assistance, safety training, and financing support. The legislation specifically excludes adversarial countries like China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea from partnership opportunities and includes provisions for cabinet-level international conferences, oversight audits, and studies on creating an international nuclear resource center. All provisions of the Act will automatically expire 20 years after enactment.
