Trump signs Executive Orders to “let the American Atom Renaissance”,

President Trump signed several executive orders on Friday to facilitate the way for more nuclear power development and, according to one of his best officials, “Usher to the American Atom Renaissance”.

“It is a hot industry, it is a brilliant industry,” said Trump about nuclear power before signing the Executive Orders.

The White House says that the instructions that the President approved on Friday will help to ensure American energy dominance and to offer the country a safe, reliable and affordable energy. The four Nuclear energy Executive measures that the President signed on Friday will accelerate the nuclear reactor tests in the Department of Energy Laboratories and accelerate applications. The commands will also extinguish a way for the Energy Ministry and the Pentagon to build core reactors on the state, to revise the nuclear reactor commission and to promote uranium reduction and enrichment.

“The first tranche of EOS refers to nuclear energy in which President Trump really took historical measures to initiate the American Nuclear Renaissance,” said Michael Kratsios, director of the Office for Science and Technology in the White House, with reporters on Friday morning.

The nuclear energy is about a fifth of the nation's power.

On Friday, Interior Minister Doug Burgum said that the United States had “suffocated” “the nuclear industry by over -regulation”. And nuclear energy is the key to winning the AI ​​race with China, said Burgum.

“Energy security is national security,” said Defense Minister Pete Hegseth and added that troops need reliable energy.

Kratsios said that the United States was in the past worldwide in nuclear innovation, but in the past three decades it has only started and built two reactors. From August 2023, the USA had 93 commercial core reactors in 54 nuclear power plants in 28 states, with the average age of these reactors, according to the US energy information management, around 42 years old.

A high -ranking civil servant of the White House also said that the administration in the government hopes to test and use core reactors before completing the president's term.

It is not yet clear what the “essential restructuring” of the National Reactor Commission would look like.

“As with any significant restructuring, there will be sales and changes in the roles,” said a high -ranking official of the White House. “The full reduction of the staff is indefinite at this point, but the executive regulations require a significant restructuring of the organization.”

The president was asked to clear all concerns that the acceleration of the approval process could affect security.

“We will get it very quickly and we will make it very safe,” said Trump.
