As energy demand surges with advancements like electric vehicles (EVs) and artificial intelligence (AI), the role of nuclear energy becomes even more critical. Both sectors consume substantial electricity, and projections indicate that without significant advancements in power generation, the electrical grid could falter under demand.
Nuclear energy—especially if paired with small modular reactors (SMRs)—offers a potential solution to meet these escalating energy needs. Tech companies are exploring partnerships to invest in self-contained nuclear power sources, enhancing energy security for high-consumption facilities like data centers.
