The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has officially launched President Trump’s Nuclear Reactor Pilot Program, focusing on advancing 11 advanced reactor projects toward deployment.

According to the DOE, these projects are part of an effort to promote the development and deployment of new nuclear technologies.

Additional DOE context notes that energy subsidies, especially for wind and solar, have not always reduced prices or increased supply as intended.

The DOE also highlights its network of 17 National Laboratories as a key asset for national research and development capabilities.

These initiatives demonstrate the department’s active role in shaping the nation's energy future.
