Investments from President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act Will Support and Advance Next-Generation Nuclear Fuels and Reactor Technologies Critical to Achieving America’s Climate Goals

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Biden-Harris Administration, through the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), today announced $150 million in funding provided by President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act for infrastructure improvements at DOE’s Idaho National Laboratory (INL) to enhance nuclear energy research and development. The funding will support nearly a dozen projects at INL’s Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) and Materials Fuels Complex (MFC), both of which have been operational for more than 50 years and serve an instrumental role in advancing nuclear technologies for federal agencies, industry, and international partnerships. Nuclear energy generates nearly a fifth of America’s electricity?and accounting for half of all domestic clean energy generation, making it a critical tool to reaching President Biden’s goal of 100% clean electricity by 2035.
