Three Mile Island Nuclear Plant to power Microsoft's AI
In a surprising move, Constellation energy plans to restart the Three Mile Island nuclear plant to power Microsoft's AI operations. This decision underscores the immense energy demands of AI development and data centers. The agreement, set to begin in 2028, involves a 20-year power purchase arrangement. This development signals a potential trend of pairing nuclear energy with large-scale AI compute clusters, possibly paving the way for more sustainable AI infrastructure.
