§262o–5 Multilateral development bank support for nuclear energy

Summary

Tell U.S. Executive Directors at the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and other similar banks to use U.S. influence to push for two things. First, lift bans on funding and technical help for building, moving, and running nuclear power — including small modular reactors — when the technology meets or surpasses the safety and quality of U.S. or other OECD countries. Second, boost the banks’ own staff skills so they can study how nuclear energy (including small modular reactors) could fit client countries’ power systems and how to deliver that funding and help.
