Nuclear Power Demand Driven by AI, Hyperscaler Companies, Says TerraPower CEO

TerraPower CEO Chris Levesque stated that hyperscale technology companies are increasingly driving demand for nuclear power to support the energy needs of data centers. The company expects to announce a deal with a data center customer for a new nuclear power plant later this year. This trend reflects a broader shift as large tech firms seek reliable, carbon-free electricity to sustain the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence infrastructure.
