On May 27, 2025, Uranium Energy Corp. (the “Company” or “UEC”) issued a news release to applaud the sweeping Executive Orders issued by President Donald J. Trump to revitalize the U.S. nuclear sector and restore domestic control over the uranium fuel cycle. The directives establish a national energy policy that invokes the Defense Production Act (“DPA”), accelerates reactor deployment, and tasks the DOE with rebuilding America’s front-to-back nuclear fuel supply infrastructure.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“We applaud the U.S. government’s decisive action to revitalize the domestic nuclear industry. These Executive Orders send the strongest signal yet that energy security and national security start with a robust domestic uranium supply chain. As the U.S. continues to import nearly all of its nuclear fuel amid a growing global supply deficit, the Administration is positioning the nation to lead the next era of global nuclear development by rebuilding a vertically integrated fuel cycle and investing in domestic uranium production. UEC is ready to support this transformation with secure, reliable, and 100% domestic uranium supply to power the future.”

 

The White House fact sheet notes that the U.S. currently supplies only 5% of the fuel used in its nuclear reactors and that the fuel cycle has “severely atrophied.” These Executive Orders are designed to reverse that trend and unleash American energy by rebuilding domestic capabilities across mining, conversion, enrichment and fabrication.

 

The Executive Orders also authorize the creation of nuclear industry consortia and DOE-backed offtake programs to support U.S.-origin uranium products.

 

Further emphasizing national security priorities, the Executive Orders underscore the importance of domestically sourced uranium for both commercial and defense applications, including advanced reactors and naval propulsion—reinforcing UEC’s role as a key potential supplier to the U.S. government and commercial market.

 

 

In parallel, the Executive Orders launch multi-agency workforce development initiatives to expand apprenticeships, technical education, and access to National Lab infrastructure—supporting the next generation of America’s nuclear professionals.

 

For further information, please refer to the Executive Orders issued by President Donald J. Trump on May 23, 2025, including:
“Reinvigorating the Nuclear Industrial Base,”
“Reforming Nuclear Reactor Testing at the Department of Energy,”
“Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” and
“Deploying Advanced Nuclear Reactor Technologies for National Security,”
