Data center operators are increasingly looking to nuclear energy to power their facilities, but some are banking on unproven technology coming to fruition

Sam Altman-backed Oklo Inc. agreed to deliver as much as 750 megawatts of electricity from nuclear reactors it plans to build to two data center companies, as technology companies seek to line up energy supplies for the booming industry.

To combat climate change, a lot of countries are spending billions on new and different kinds of nuclear reactors.

This is the first reactor barred in Japan under stricter safety protocols adopted after the Fukushima disaster.

Japan's nuclear watchdog on Wednesday formally disqualified a reactor in the country's north-central region from restarting, the first rejection under safety standards that were reinforced after the 2011 Fukushima disaster.

California's only remaining nuclear power plant plans to use artificial intelligence tools to help it comply with new licensing requirements to keep the decades-old facility running. Atomic Canyon, a startup based in San Luis Obispo,

The move at Diablo Canyon is the latest example of the growing intersection between technology firms and the energy sector.

Diablo Canyon gets nifty new tech to … speed up document retrieval? A California startup is deploying what it says is the first commercial installation of generative AI at a US nuclear power plant, but don't get too excited (or worried) about what it's going to be doing quite yet – it's a pretty run-of-the-mill use in an enterprise environment.
