Google’s power-hungry data centers crave nuclear energy
The Verge 1 week ago 14
Google announced a 20-year agreement to update six US nuclear power plant sites through Constellation to supply electricity for its data centers. The deal is tied to more than $4.3 billion in new investment by Constellation and targets 890 megawatts of added capacity over five years. This expands the nuclear power supply pipeline that Google relies on, while Constellation funds efficiency upgrades at the selected plants.
