AI Ignites a Nuclear Renaissance: How Tech Titans, Policy Shifts and New Reactors Are Powering the Next Energy Revolution

Introduction: From Post‑Fukushima Stagnation to AI‑Fueled Revival A quarter century ago, nuclear energy was in decline.

The disasters at Three Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima galvanized public opposition and slowed investment, while nations turned to renewables and gas. Today, however, a new force—artificial intelligence—may be upending the calculus. Machine‑learning models like GPT‑5 run on data centers that consume vast amounts of electricity, and the prospect of constant, clean energy is pushing governments and

Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Nightmare: Europe’s Largest Reactor Now on Emergency Power

Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Nightmare: Europe’s Largest Reactor Now on Emergency Power

Situation Overview: The Zaporizhzhia plant sits near Energodar on the Dnipro river in occupied Ukraine. It was capable of powering 4 million homes before the war. Russian forces seized it in March 2022; its six VVER-1000 reactors were immediately shut down, cutting off a fifth of Ukraine’s electricity output reuters.com reuters.com. Even idle, the reactor cores and adjacent spent-fuel pools contain hot radioactive material that needs cooling. Normally this cooling comes from electric pumps powered by the grid. Since the latest power line was severed on Sept. 23, those pumps have instead been run by diesel generators reuters.com reuters.com. Zelenskiy’s Alarm: In his nightly
