Trump supports nuclear power as it is ‘more American’ than wind, solar, US official says

By Reuters, September 6, 2025

WASHINGTON, Sept 4 (Reuters) – The Trump administration is more willing to support loan guarantees and tax breaks for nuclear power than for wind and solar because it is “more American” than those forms of energy, the director of the U.S. Energy Dominance Council said on Thursday.

Jarrod Agen said nuclear power is more likely to be made from U.S.-made parts than wind and solar farms, so the administration is more willing to give it financial aid from the U.S. Loan Programs Office and support tax incentives. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/trump-supports-nuclear-power-it-is-more-american-than-wind-solar-us-official-2025-09-04/
