The five biggest tech companies just went nuclear.


Here's why the numbers make it inevitable.
A single data center demands at least 30 megawatts of power. Most hyperscale facilities need far more.
One small modular reactor generates up to 300 megawatts.
That's enough to power a data center or two, but that's the problem.
Demand is growing faster than reactors can be built.
So Big Tech stopped waiting and started buying.
Microsoft restarted Three Mile Island under a 20-year deal, paying at least $100 per megawatt-hour when wind and solar costs $60 in the same region.
Amazon invested $500 million into SMRs and committed $35 billion to data center campuses by 2040.
Meta is now the biggest corporate nuclear buyer on earth. Deals totaling more than 6 gigawatts. Enough to power a city of 5 million homes.
Data centers need 24/7 reliable power. Nuclear is the only emissions-free source that can promise that.
The AI race is an energy race.
And uranium is the fuel.
