Mike Kramer: Navigating power deals in the new data economy
Mike Kramer has a background in finance, not engineering, but a combined 20 years at Exelon and Constellation and a key role in the deals that have Meta and Microsoft buying power from Constellation’s Clinton and Crane sites have made him something of a nuclear expert.
Kramer spoke with Nuclear News staff writer Susan Gallier in late August, just after a visit to Clinton in central Illinois to celebrate a power purchase agreement (PPA) with Meta that closed in June. As Constellation’s vice president for data economy strategy, Kramer was part of the deal-making—not just the celebration.

Mental health has become an increasingly critical topic in the engineering field, where high stress, a historically rigid culture, and competitive environments can take a significant toll. This session highlights current research on mental health challenges and support systems in engineering education and practice. Panelists will also discuss emerging curricular efforts-such as courses designed to engage engineering students in conversations around emotional intelligence and well-being and examine how industry is responding with new resources, evolving workplace norms, and growing attention to psychological safety. Join us to explore how we can collectively engineer a culture that supports mental health across the profession.
