Two new partnerships forged in AI and nuclear sectors
The nuclear space is full of companies eager to power new AI development. At the same time, many AI companies want to provide services to the nuclear industry. It should come as no surprise, then, that two new partnerships have recently been announced that further bridge the AI and nuclear sectors.
AtkinsRéalis has announced a partnership with Nvidia that aims to leverage Nvidia’s technologies to deploy “nuclear-powered, large-scale AI factories.” Centrus Energy has announced a partnership with Palantir Technologies to use Palantir’s software in support of Centrus’s plans to expand enrichment capacity.

In 2021, over 20% of US electricity generation came from coal and much of that generation is scheduled for retirement over the next decade. Advanced nuclear technologies represent an emissions-free alternative to coal that is currently being pursued at some domestic coal sites and the opportunity exists for additional projects in the future. An expert panel will discuss the challenges that still remain to unlock the full potential of a large-scale coal to nuclear transition in the U.S.
