Tech Sector Invests in Nuclear Energy to Support Data Centers

By Garvit Vyas , 05 March, 2025

Clean energy sources are focusing on the production of energy sources in 2024. Energy sources with fewer carbon emissions significantly impact the tech and energy sectors. Wind energy, solar energy, geothermal energy, and nuclear energy can become game changers in the future. The tech industry's primary focus is on artificial intelligence operations in 2024.

Data centers are driving more power due to AI-based computing. Hence, there is a massive demand for electricity to power data centers. Electricity from conventional energy sources raises climate change concerns. However, not much electricity can be generated from wind and solar energy. This is due to renewable sources' dependency on the climatic conditions to produce energy. Hence, uninterrupted power supply to data centers appears difficult for the energy sector. Nuclear energy solves this problem if power infrastructures are set up soon. Nuclear energy through the fusion process can provide significant energy to support data centers. Ultimately, it supports the growth of clean energy transition as well.

Microsoft and Open AI are the leading market players investing heavily in nuclear energy projects in 2024. According to research conducted by the global energy industry, the tech sector is making significant investments in nuclear energy production. This indicates that the industry is concerned with AI operations with nuclear power in 2024. Further, nuclear fusion is important in generating electricity and safeguarding clean energy transitions. Some companies like Marathon Fusion are finding solutions to address the limited supply of some elements. One of those elements, like tritium, plays a vital role in nuclear fusion. It indicates that the availability of raw materials is equally essential for nuclear energy generation.

According to a U.S. energy firm, NextEra Energy, the demand for renewable energy can expand over the next seven years from 2024. AI demand can triple over this period, as stated by the firm. Further, global electricity demand is set to rise double by 2050 compared to 2020 statistics. Hence, the tech industry invests heavily in developing nuclear energy infrastructure for better supply. Additionally, nuclear energy supports clean energy transition as the harmful emissions are lowest here.
