France set to pledge one gigawatt of nuclear power for AI France bids big on nuclear energy for AI.
Key to the investment is one gigawatt of nuclear energy power, which will be destined for the high-performance computers and data centers needed to power emerging AI tools.
Around a third of the country’s entire energy consumption comes from nuclear energy, and its infrastructure is so extensive that it exported surplus energy to other countries last year.
The latest investments add France to the race of countries and companies bidding big on nuclear and other green energy sources to power future data centers.
Using nuclear energy to power its AI data centers seems like the natural progression.
