'''International Nuclear Energy Cooperation Program''' is a Department of Energy initiative led by the Office of Nuclear Energy that promotes U.S. nuclear technology exports and international partnerships across over 50 countries, engaging more than 2,800 stakeholders and supporting over 50 projects as of 2025. Established in 2005 under the Energy Policy Act, the program enhances global energy security by collaborating with nations like Japan and France, leveraging efforts like the U.S.-Japan Bilateral Commission, with 2025 activities post-Hurricane Helene strengthening resilience through nuclear energy solutions deployed across allied nations and U.S. territories. {{Official URL (simple)|url=https://www.energy.gov/ne/international-cooperation}} ==Goals== * Enhance global energy security through nuclear technology cooperation. * Support international markets for U.S. nuclear innovations. * Promote sustainable energy and economic stability worldwide. ==Organization== The International Nuclear Energy Cooperation Program was sponsored by the Office of Nuclear Energy within the Department of Energy, headquartered in Washington, D.C. Funding came from Congressional appropriations, supporting DOE labs (e.g., Oak Ridge, Sandia) and international partners across over 50 countries, collaborating with entities like the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) and over 2,800 stakeholders, managed by the Office of Nuclear Energy under Assistant Secretary Katy Huff. The leader at the Department of Energy level was the Assistant Secretary for Nuclear Energy, currently Katy Huff (as of February 22, 2025), directing the program’s global strategy. ==History== The International Nuclear Energy Cooperation Program was established in 2005 under the [[Energy Policy Act of 2005]], building on DOE’s nuclear expertise to foster international collaboration. It expanded with initiatives like the U.S.-Japan Bilateral Commission (2012) and supported over 50 projects by 2025, with milestones including 2022’s Frontier exascale deployment aiding nuclear modeling and 2025’s post-Hurricane Helene resilience efforts through global nuclear partnerships. ==Funding== Initial funding in 2005 came from Congressional appropriations, with unspecified startup amounts supporting early efforts. Funding continues within DOE’s $1.5 billion FY 2025 Nuclear Energy budget, supporting over 50 projects with international cost-sharing, with no end date as appropriations sustain efforts like 2025’s $5 million for resilience-focused nuclear tech deployments. ==Implementation== The program was implemented through bilateral agreements, technology transfers, and R&D collaborations, deploying nuclear energy solutions across over 50 countries and U.S. territories. It operates continuously with no end date, enhancing resilience post-Helene in 2025 with nuclear innovations like small modular reactors. ==Related== * [[U.S.-Japan Bilateral Commission on Civil Nuclear Cooperation]] * [[Energy Earthshots Initiative]] * [[Advanced Scientific Computing Research Program]] ==External links== * https://www.energy.gov/ne/international-cooperation * https://www.energy.gov/ne/office-nuclear-energy - Office of Nuclear Energy * https://www.doi.gov/ - Department of the Interior Overview * [[wikipedia:United States Department of Energy]] ===Social Media=== * https://twitter.com/ENERGY * https://www.facebook.com/energygov ==References== [[Category:Programs and initiatives]] [[Category:Programs]] [[Category:Department of Energy]]
