~ As the push for clean and reliable energy sources continues, Governor Greg Abbott and the Texas Advanced Nuclear Energy Office (TANEO) have announced the opening of applications to increase advanced nuclear construction in the state of Texas. This move aims to strengthen nuclear manufacturing capacity and lead America's nuclear renaissance.

Governor Abbott emphasized the importance of boosting advanced nuclear capacity in order to power the future of Texas. He stated that nuclear energy not only provides an efficient and reliable energy solution, but also creates high-paying jobs in advanced manufacturing. Through TANEO and the Texas Advanced Nuclear Development Fund (TANDF), the state is taking steps to streamline the nuclear regulatory environment and make investments that will support a thriving nuclear energy ecosystem for generations to come.

This initiative was made possible by House Bill 14, which Governor Abbott signed into law in June 2025. The bill established TANEO and created a $350 million fund, making it the largest nuclear investment in the country. The TANDF will support the development and commercialization of advanced nuclear energy projects, as well as strengthen the nuclear supply chain and its associated manufacturing capacity within Texas.

Under TANDF, eligible projects include those that build advanced reactors, strengthen nuclear manufacturing capacity, and rebuild a domestic fuel cycle supply chain within Texas. These projects can apply for two reimbursement programs: Project Development and Supply Chain Reimbursement Program and Advanced Nuclear Construction Reimbursement Program.

Interested applicants must submit a notice of intent to apply by April 23, 2026 at 5:00 pm CDT, followed by formal applications by May 14, 2026 at 5:00 pm CDT. With this opportunity now open, it is expected that there will be a surge in applications from companies looking to be part of this groundbreaking initiative in advancing clean energy solutions for Texas.
