WASHINGTON D.C. The Nuclear Innovation Alliance (NIA) shared the following statement in response to the passage of the International Nuclear Energy Act of 2025 (INEA) in the Senate. This statement may be attributed to NIA President and CEO Judi Greenwald:
"Today the Senate passed the International Nuclear Energy Act of 2025 (INEA). This bill aims to unlock America’s ability to coordinate with international partners on the research, development, licensing, and deployment of nuclear energy technologies. This coordination is essential to realize nuclear energy’s potential to provide clean and cost-competitive energy to our allies and developing nations seeking reliable energy sources.
Given the interconnected global energy landscape, countries across the globe are seeking to secure their energy futures and are more interested than ever in new nuclear energy as a viable pathway. With the United States leading the development of over a dozen advanced reactor technologies, we are well positioned to help meet these nations’ energy needs. We can establish U.S. leadership in the advanced reactor ecosystem only through international collaboration and strategic efforts to enable the export of new reactor technologies.
NIA has long supported the passage of INEA and is very pleased to see it make its way through both chambers of Congress. We look forward to it being signed into law by President Trump."
