Report is out!!RESTORING AMERICAS COMPETITIVE NUCLEAR ENERGY ADVANTAGE RESTORING AMERICAS COMPETITIVE NUCLEAR ENERGY ADVANTAGE A strategy to assure U.S. National Security Executive Summary Nuclear power is intrinsically tied to National Security. America has lost its competitive global position as the world leader in nuclear energy to state-owned enterprises, notably Russia and China, with other competitor nations also aggressively moving to surpass the United States (U.S.). The Strategy to Restore American Nuclear Energy Leadership is designed to restore Americas competitive nuclear advantages. It is in the U.S. national security interest to preserve and grow the assets and investments of the entire U.S. nuclear enterprise. We can do so by addressing domestic and international security interests, expanding nuclear generation, minimizing commercial fleet fiscal vulnerabilities, assuring defense needs for uranium, and leveling the playing field against state-owned enterprises. First, the U.S. Government will take bold action to revive and strengthen the uranium mining industry, support uranium conversion services, end reliance on foreign uranium enrichment capabilities, and sustain the current fleet, removing strategic vulnerabilities across the nuclear fuel cycle and restoring a world-class workforce to provide benefits to the U.S. and to compete in the international market. Next, the U.S. Government will leverage American technological innovation and advanced nuclear Research, Development, and Demonstration (RD&D) investments to accelerate technical advances and regain American nuclear energy leadership. Finally, the U.S. Government will move into markets currently dominated by Russian and Chinese State Owned Enterprises (SOE) and recover our position as the world leader in exporting best-in-class nuclear energy technology, and with it, strong non-proliferation standards. We will restore American nuclear credibility and demonstrate American commitment to competing in contested markets and repositioning America as the responsible nuclear energy partner of choice. The Nuclear Fuel Working Group recognizes the importance of taking focused, deliberate action to prevent the near-term collapse of the domestic uranium mining, milling, and conversion industries and the need to support US strategic fuel cycle capabilities. This strategy includes concrete actions that the Administration has already taken through its Fiscal Year 2021 Budget that demonstrate its commitment to these principles as well as recommendations for additional action that can be used by the Administration to inform future policy decisions. Any recommendations in this strategy beyond those already reflected
