New partnership to power AI with nuclear energy

A new collaboration between Palantir Technologies and The Nuclear Company aims to use nuclear power to meet the growing energy needs of artificial intelligence (AI). Announced recently, this partnership focuses on building large-scale nuclear reactors across the U.S. to support AI-driven projects. The goal is to provide clean, reliable energy for data centers that power advanced technologies.

Mike Gallagher from Palantir emphasized that this project is about giving workers cutting-edge tools, moving away from outdated methods like paper-based management. He highlighted the importance of reviving America’s nuclear industry to stay competitive globally, especially with countries like China. The Nuclear Company’s CEO, Jonathan Webb, echoed this, stressing their shared mission to make the U.S. a leader in critical technologies like nuclear energy.

This partnership combines Palantir’s expertise in data and software solutions with The Nuclear Company’s focus on nuclear innovation. Together, they plan to create gigawatt-scale nuclear facilities to support AI’s massive energy demands. The initiative also aims to streamline construction and operations, ensuring projects are efficient and modern.

Both companies are driven by a vision to strengthen America’s position in technology and energy. By investing in nuclear power, they hope to support the growing AI industry while promoting sustainable energy solutions. This effort could set a new standard for powering advanced technologies in the U.S.
