Extended read

The $17.5 billion loan program represents a significant policy shift to accelerate nuclear manufacturing. By targeting supply chain bottlenecks, the DOE is attempting to de-risk the construction of new reactors, which have historically suffered from massive cost overruns. This provides a long-term tailwind for the nuclear ecosystem.
