Nuclear Energy Leadership Act This bill addresses nuclear energy innovation. Among other things, the bill directs the Department of Energy (DOE)to (1)establish a long-term nuclear power purchase agreement pilot program; (2)advance the research and development of domestic advanced, affordable, and clean nuclear energy; (3)develop a 10-year strategic plan for its Office of Nuclear Energy; (4)provide for a versatile, reactor-based fast neutron source; (5)establish a program to make available high-assay, low-enriched uranium for use in commercial or noncommercial advanced nuclear reactors; and (6)provide competitive grants to develop the capability to transport high-assay, low enriched uranium. DOE, the National Nuclear Security Administration, and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission must jointly establish a University Nuclear Leadership Program to provide financial assistance for scholarships, fellowships, and research and development projects at institutions of higher education.

The IBEW supports the enactment of the Nuclear Energy Leadership Act (H.R. 3306/S. 903), which would create federal policies to support nuclear power research and deployment. This would include the establishment of a domestic market for advanced nuclear generation, ensure the availability of high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU), support the construction of demonstration projects, and support training for the next generation of nuclear sector workers. Federal support for advanced nuclear generation could potentially provide thousands of jobs to current and future IBEW members once the technology is commercially deployed.
