Summary

This bill establishes the Oklahoma Advanced Nuclear Energy Office to promote and facilitate the development of advanced nuclear energy projects in the state. The Office, led by a Governor-appointed Director, will coordinate nuclear permitting processes, provide technical assistance to project developers, and administer a grant program through the newly created Oklahoma Advanced Nuclear Development Revolving Fund to support construction and development costs of advanced nuclear reactors and related facilities. The legislation also requires the Oklahoma Corporation Commission to develop rules for nuclear energy regulation while maintaining its constitutional authority, and creates mechanisms for both development grants and reimbursement grants to incentivize nuclear energy projects that connect to Oklahoma's power grid.
