In an exclusive interview, the CEO explained the upsides and downsides of Big Tech investments in nuclear power.
Microsoft, Amazon and Google have all struck deals this year with developers of atomic power, which they argue can provide the reliable 24-hour low-carbon energy to power their data centres — and keep their valuations soaring on the strength of their AI ambitions.
Nuclear energy could be the long-term solution for the energy demands of AI. In the short-term, though, AI companies may turn to oil and gas.
The topic of energy is rapidly becoming central to the conversation around AI. AI is increasingly helping power suppliers deal with its own increasing demand.
FN Media Group News Commentary - Industry insiders are saying that the next big artificial intelligence (AI) opportunity could be Nuclear Power. As AI continues to drive unprecedented advancements across industries,
In the US, demand for power from AI data centers is skyrocketing, driven by the intensive computational requirements of its models. Will it let up?
Nuclear power not only provides the energy scale and reliability required by AI-driven data centers but also helps address the global need for climate action. With this synergy, the growth of AI ...
According to the September updated edition of the report, "Pathways to Commercial Liftoff Advanced Nuclear" by the US Department of Energy (DOE), the U.S.
Nuclear energy is seen as a cleaner and carbon-free alternative to fossil fuels, with small nuclear reactors providing safe and round-the-clock power.
FN Media Group News Commentary - The partnership between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and nuclear power is a natural evolution in the quest for sustainable technological progress. As companies like NuScale,
An additive manufacturing process can also lead to the formation of defects, such as hot cracking, residual stress-induced cracking, lack-of-fusion, and gas pores. These materials' overall performance is heavily influenced by their material properties, defect characteristics, and residual stress state.
Last week, the company announced it received a construction permit for the next iteration of its system, Hermes 2. This plant will share a location with Hermes, and it will include the infrastructure to transform heat to electricity. That makes it the first electricity-producing next-generation nuclear plant to get this approval in the US.
