**The Rise of Nuclear Energy in Tech: Amazon, Microsoft, and Google Lead the Way**
In a significant shift towards sustainable energy solutions, tech giants Amazon, Microsoft, and Google are increasingly turning to nuclear power to fuel their data centers and AI technologies. These companies have been actively making agreements with developers to construct small modular reactors (SMRs) as a response to their growing energy demands.
Yahoo Finance special reporter Akiko Fujita examines this trend and discusses the potential of these SMRs. Despite no commercial modular reactors being completed in the U.S. to date, Fujita highlights how these reactors could benefit power grids and offer a cleaner and more cost-effective energy source.
Today, X-energy CEO Clay Sell shared insights into Amazon's interest in the company's SMR plans in an interview with Catalysts. Additionally, last week, Kairos Power CEO Mike Laufer talked with Yahoo Finance about his company's collaboration with Google on nuclear power initiatives.
