Nuclear Power Generation Expected To Increase As AI Requires More Energy – Energy Industry Overview

The tremendous onset of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has brought about an enormous increase in the demand for energy. AI encompasses a multitude of numerous electronic components that consume enormous amounts of electricity as well as generating vast amounts of heat. Expanded use of air conditioners and temperature controlling equipment is also consuming energy past levels seen in the past.

Natural gas powered stations as well as nuclear fueled generation facilities are becoming the most viable sources of energy to meet the rapid expansion of A.I.

The infamous Three Mile Island nuclear reactor in Pennsylvania, is scheduled to reopen in 2028 under a 20 year contract to power new and expanding data centers involved with the expansion of A.I. Numerous other facilities across the country are also undergoing upgrades and expansions in preparation for increased power demand and for growing revenues.
