As tech giants explore green energy solutions to meet rising demands from generative AI and expanding data centers, some are investing in nuclear power. However, the complexities of nuclear construction may hinder its viability. Experts predict that by 2030, data centers will predominantly rely on solar, wind, and geothermal energy due to their faster scalability and lower costs. While nuclear investments are a strategic diversification, the challenges and expenses involved are likely to make them less favorable in the long run compared to renewables.
The current rush into nuclear by tech giants may lead to a tough realization: nuclear's complexities often outweigh its benefits compared to faster, scalable renewable sources.
The expected energy transformation by 2030 suggests that solar, wind, and geothermal will ultimately be the leaders in meeting the data centers' future energy needs.
