What started as a DOE program under a November 2025 executive order is now a whole-of-government initiative spanning 15+ federal agencies, 340+ institutions, a $293.76M grants program, and over $500M in private consortium contributions. DOE named the first 278 funded projects; the largest single award is $60M for Prometheus, a three-year effort using AI to design, license, manufacture and operate nuclear reactors. Challenge areas span health care, energy, infrastructure, manufacturing and affordability. If you do anything adjacent to scientific computing, 278 funded projects is a lot of new procurement surface.
