Three Mile Island Restart: Energy Secretary Chris Wright Says Crane Clean Energy Center Can Cut Power Prices and Fuel Microsoft’s AI Push
U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright visited the former Three Mile Island nuclear site to promote restarting Unit 1, backed by a $1 billion federal loan to Constellation Energy. The project aims to supply power for AI-driven data center growth, with Microsoft signing a long-term purchase deal. Unit 1, shut since 2019, could return to service by 2027, pending regulatory approval.
