Biden-Harris increase budget for nuclear research, development and consolidation by 50%

Nuclear energy is one of the large energy points for the USA president Biden. Many new reactors, research and keep existing nuclear fleet contributing among others Qoute; The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) recently released its Fiscal Year 2022 (FY22) Congressional Budget request which seeks a record $1.8 billion for the Office of Nuclear Energy (NE). This is a historic level of commitment by the Biden-Harris Administration and it clearly recognizes the important role our current nuclear fleet and future reactors will play in combating the climate crisis, creating clean energy jobs with the free and fair choice to join a union, and growing America’s economy through innovative science and technology. The expansion of nuclear power will be critical to reaching net-zero emissions by 2050 and there’s an urgent need to bring new clean energy technologies to bear. This budget request puts a tremendous emphasis on scaling up the commercial deployment of smaller and more flexible advanced reactor designs, and to the advanced fuel that will be required to operate them. https://www.energy.gov/ne/articles/5-key-takeaways-nuclear-energy-fy2022-budget-request
