Alphabet Nears Deal for Nuclear Power From Constellation Amid Data Center Surge

Alphabet is pursuing a major power purchase agreement with Constellation Energy Corp. to supply nuclear electricity for its data centers, joining a competitive scramble among Big Tech companies to lock in zero-emission baseload power as artificial-intelligence workloads consume record amounts of electricity. The reported agreement would mark Alphabet's largest nuclear commitment to date, supplementing its existing partnerships with Georgia Power on reactor uprates at Vogtle and Hatch plants and a recent deal to purchase 50 percent of Finland's Loviisa nuclear plant output through 2049.
