DOE seeks proposals for AI data centers at Paducah
The Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management has issued a request for offer (RFO) seeking proposals from U.S. companies to build and power AI data centers on the DOE’s Paducah Site in Kentucky. Companies are being sought to potentially enter into one or more long-term leasing agreements at the site that would be solely funded by the applicants.

We developed a technique for producing nickel-chromium weld overlay claddings at increased metal deposition rates. Addition of supplemental filler metal in the form of atomized powder to the submerged arc surfacing process increases the total metal deposition rate in proportion to the amount of metal powder added. Deposit chemistry, micro structure, and integrity are similar to those produced by conventional, oscillated electrode submerged arc cladding operations.
