Google announces an agreement with a company to develop a triple of advanced nuclear energy projects

Google announced on Wednesday that it will help support Elementl Power with an investment in developing the energy product for three advanced nuclear sites.

“It will provide capital in the early stage to help Elementl Power preparing three possible sites in the United States for advanced nuclear projects.”

the Technology giant The “Commercial Exodus Option” will get one of the three advanced nuclear projects after Elementl has built and began to generate energy at sites, according to Google and Elementl Power.

Google is committed to stimulating projects that enhance the energy networks in which we work, and Advanced nuclear technology The head of the Google Global Center Energy Center said in a statement: This moment of artificial intelligence And the American innovation. ”

Countries are looking for sophisticated nuclear reactors with smaller energy needs

Elementl Power said that power generation in each site will reach at least 600 MW.

The two companies will cooperate to “identify and develop” new projects alongside utility companies and “organized authority partners”, according to a press statement.

Google also said that her cooperation with Elementl Power “helps Elementl achieve its goal of bringing the important nuclear capacity online by 2025.” In the next decade, the developer of the advanced nuclear project wants to introduce more than 10 Gigawatts.

The agreement between Google and Elementl Power comes about five months after the technology giant signed with another nuclear power company.

Through this deal, Google will buy nuclear energy from small “multiple” normative reactions developed by Kairos Power. Kairos Power said at the time that these reactors “will be located in the relevant service areas to provide clean electricity to Google Data Centers” starting in 2030.

The technology giant is not alone in searching for it Nuclear energy For electricity.

Microsoft unveiled the energy purchase agreement with Constellation last year. This agreement, which extends to 20 years, “paves the way” to the Unit 1 reactor on the island of Three Mile to start in Pennsylvania, according to Constellation.

Microsoft Deal will reopen the nuclear factory in Pennsylvania, the partial collapse site of 1979, to run artificial intelligence

In October, Amazon said it has entered into three new agreements directed towards developing the nuclear energy project. These agreements were with the northwestern energy, X-Energy and Dominion Energy.

A report from Gridstrategies predicts that the demand for electricity in the United States will jump by 15.8 % by 2029, with data centers, manufacturing and electricity major shareholders.

A separate international energy management report found that the US electricity consumption of data centers specifically will increase by 130 % from 2024 to 2030.

The demand for artificial intelligence in the United States will increase, but also provides an opportunity to manage energy

Nearly 18 % of US energy came from nuclear energy last year, according to the US Department of Energy.
