President Donald Trump signed four executive orders on Friday, creating a pathway for the Department of Energy (DoE) to ease regulations and build nuclear reactors.
The executive orders call for the overhaul of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), which regulates the nation’s nuclear reactors.
Under Trump’s order, the NRC is required to make decisions on nuclear reactor licenses within 18 months, paving the way for additional nuclear reactors in a process that previously took multiple years.
