Oklo announces plans to collaborate with Vertiv and Liberty
In back-to-back press releases, Oklo recently announced two new partnerships that seek to advance the deployment of its commercial power reactors in the data center market.
These partnerships, one with Ohio-based Vertiv Holdings and one with Colorado-based Liberty Energy, continue Oklo’s trend in working to position their Aurora powerhouse as a key part of the energy solution for powering the AI boom.

Computer codes modeling plasma-wall interactions of fusion plasmas are costly in computer power and time—the running time for a single parameter setting is easily on the order of weeks or months, not to mention the expenditure for parametric studies. We propose to exploit the already gathered results in order to predict the outcome in the high-dimensional parameter space. For this, we utilize the Gaussian process method within the Bayesian framework. Uncertainties of the predictions are provided that point the way to parameter settings of further (expensive) simulations.
