Google is so huge it invests in power plants. Google will support building seven small nuclear reactors in the U.S. through a deal with startup Kairos Power. These reactors aim to meet Google's growing energy needs while pushing forward a carbon-free energy future. The 500 megawatts of generation that would be built by Kairos for Google is about enough to power a midsize city. Or one Google’s AI data-center, s̶o̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶i̶r̶ ̶A̶I̶ ̶c̶a̶n̶ ̶o̶v̶e̶r̶t̶a̶k̶e̶ ̶h̶u̶m̶a̶n̶i̶t̶y̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶c̶o̶n̶q̶u̶e̶r̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶e̶a̶r̶t̶h̶.̶ What a time to be alive, huge behemoths like Google have more money than some countries and build their own power plants. Waiting for Google city and Mars colony reveal. The whole project is expected to be finished by 2035. So we still have time until then 😉

Fascinating to see Big Tech giants like Google, Microsoft, and Amazon investing heavily in next-generation nuclear power technologies! These tech leaders are partnering with nuclear reactor makers to secure reliable, carbon-free energy to power their growing data centers and AI infrastructure. The shift towards small modular reactors (SMRs) is particularly interesting, as their scalable and modular design allows for faster deployment cycles. What's equally noteworthy is the environmental angle. Companies like Google are acknowledging the challenge of reducing emissions as their compute demands skyrocket. Nuclear energy, long plagued by public perception issues, is now being touted as a clean, 24/7 power source to support their sustainability goals. While the nuclear energy debate continues, it's clear that Big Tech sees it as a critical piece of the puzzle in their transition to a greener future. This could have far-reaching implications, not just for the tech industry, but for the broader adoption of advanced nuclear technologies. #NuclearEnergy #BigTech #SustainableFuture #CarbonFree #Google #Microsoft #Amazon #SmallModularReactors #CleanEnergy #EmissionsReduction #TechForGood #AIInfrastructure #GreenTech #DataCenters #RenewableEnergy #EnergyInnovation #ClimateChange #NuclearPower #Sustainability #SmartEnergy #FutureOfEnergy

In a new move, Google has announced a partnership with the startup “Kairos Power” to develop six to seven small nuclear reactors, potentially adding around 500 megawatts of clean energy to the U.S. power grid in the coming years. This investment represents the largest support from a technology company for advanced nuclear power reactors. Through this, Google aims to meet the growing energy demands for powering AI systems, especially in data centers running advanced models like “Gemini.” Google also seeks to achieve its goal of reaching net-zero carbon emissions by 2030. These small nuclear reactors feature modular, compact designs, allowing for rapid deployment in diverse locations, and require refueling only once every 3 to 7 years. They also utilize molten salt cooling technology instead of water, making them safer and less prone to major breakdowns. This comes after Microsoft’s investment in reviving the “Three Mile Island” nuclear facility, reflecting a broader trend among major tech companies toward nuclear energy. Nonetheless, Google continues to diversify its energy sources by investing in solar, wind, and advanced geothermal power to ensure a safe and sustainable energy future. #Google #KairosPower #NuclearEnergy #CleanEnergy #AI #DataCenters #GeminiModel #Sustainability #NetZero #RenewableEnergy #GreenTech #TechInnovation #FutureEnergy #CarbonNeutral #AdvancedNuclear
