American nuclear energy is linked to artificial intelligence.
Large data centers supporting the highly expanding activities of technology companies in the field of AI require a high amount of energy. For several months, large American technology companies have been seeking various sources to supply energy to these massive data centers.
Aside from innovative ideas to meet the required energy from clean sources, nuclear power has been and continues to be one of the most important solutions for these companies. Amazon signed a contract a few months ago, purchasing a data center with a direct connection to its neighboring nuclear power plant. American power supply companies were pleased with this move, and the trend continues.
Microsoft has recently hired nuclear energy experts. The stock value of nuclear power producers has been increasing, with one of the highest price hikes in the past year. Companies like Constellation and its counterparts in the US enthusiastically support the expanding trend of directly connecting data centers to nuclear power plants, and this trend will not stop.
Upgrading operational power plants, reopening retired power plants, and constructing new power plants are three solutions to address the energy crisis, each requiring different time and cost. The recent incident of equipping and reopening an out-of-service power plant in Georgia in recent months is now understood to be significant.
