The National Association of State Energy Officials, in Coordination with 11 States and Key Partners, Issues Request for Information to Support Advanced Nuclear First Mover Initiative
WASHINGTON (September 16, 2025) – Today, the National Association of State Energy Officials (NASEO) issued a Request for Information (RFI) in support of the Advanced Nuclear First Mover Initiative, which is led by state co-chairs New York, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Wyoming, and participating states Louisiana, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Utah, Virginia, and West Virginia. The governors of these states are committed to delivering advanced nuclear power rapidly, safely, and cost-effectively to ensure consumers and businesses have reliable and affordable electricity for years to come.
NASEO is working with the states to advance this important national initiative. The RFI will inform the 11 First Mover states, and other observer states, on how best to create a coordinated orderbook strategy for advanced nuclear projects —a mechanism that will speed project development and lower costs.
