The funding will be issued through the Office of Energy Dominance Financing in partnership with Westinghouse Electric Co. Under the plan, five eligible projects would each work with Westinghouse to build two 1.1 GW AP1000 reactors.
The loans are structured to cover long-lead component purchases, with disbursements staggered and tied to partner equity commitments. Before accessing DOE funding, project partners must commit $500 million in equity for each project.
According to the DOE, the coordinated procurement strategy is intended to reduce costs, strengthen the domestic nuclear supply chain, and speed deployment.
For consumers, the initiative is meant to expand reliable baseload power generation while also supporting faster reactor construction, reflecting renewed investment in large-scale nuclear infrastructure.
