Given energy hungry AI and regulations over nuclear power, will a tech giant (market cap >= $100B) succeed in building a private nuclear power plant (100+ MW) for its own consumption or a commercial power plant to provide energy just for AI needs?
The nuclear power plant must be a newly constructed reactor with major part of the infrastructure investment coming from the tech giant. Renewal of existing facilities like the TMI plant in PA don’t count.
