As such, Google, like several other big tech firms, are turning to the nuclear power industry in order to meet growing energy demands.. The pair plan to create as many as seven small nuclear reactors in the United States over the coming decade. “This agreement is part of our efforts to develop and commercialize a broad portfolio of advanced clean electricity technologies to power our global data centers and offices. This approach will complement our use of variable renewables, like solar and wind, and help us reach our ambitious 24/7 carbon-free energy and net-zero goals,” noted Google in a blog post.
Precisely where it plans to position the aforementioned small modular reactors remains to be seen, but earlier this year, Kairos Power took the significant step of breaking ground on its Hermes non-powered demonstration reactor in Tennessee, which is the first advanced reactor project in the US to receive a construction permit from the country’s Nuclear Regulatory Commission.
