SMR firms race to build a nuclear fuel supply chain
SMRs could help meet an expected surge in U.S. electricity demand coming from the expansion of power-hungry data centers but they are still in the development stage and unlikely to become commercially available until at least the end of the decade. As well as investing billions of dollars to develop this technology ahead of their rivals, SMR companies need to secure supplies of nuclear fuel.
Why AI data centers are turning to nuclear power
Facing increasing power requirements to meet artificial intelligence demand, a number of AI data center operators are turning to nuclear energy. But not all nuclear-powered AI data center projects are the same. This article discusses some of the distinctions.
