Google’s Nuclear Energy Deal for AI Power
Google has signed a deal to purchase nuclear energy from Kairos Power’s Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), marking a first in corporate adoption of nuclear energy. The 500 MW of clean, carbon-free power will support AI and other operations by 2030. Google, facing a 13% rise in emissions due to AI expansion, sees nuclear energy as a solution. SMRs, smaller and easier to deploy, offer a viable alternative to traditional power sources. Other corporations, including Microsoft and Amazon, are also investing in nuclear energy. However, public scepticism and environmental concerns remain challenges.
