Data Center Colocation and AI's Nuclear Play
The concept of colocating data centers with power generation facilities is gaining momentum as a strategy to meet surging energy demands, with nuclear power colocation specifically a popular option. This session will examine the technical, regulatory and economic aspects of data center-generator colocation, with a particular focus on nuclear's role in this emerging model. Panelists will discuss cost-sharing and reliability implications for grid-tied consumers and how to balance the needs of external stakeholders with the strategic interests of generators and data center developers.
