Meta signs nuclear energy deals to power Prometheus AI supercluster
Summary
Meta signed agreements with Vistra, TerraPower and Oklo to secure nuclear power for its Prometheus AI supercluster being built at a data center in New Albany, Ohio. The deals should add roughly 6.6 gigawatts of power by 2035, and Meta said the arrangements will extend and fund nuclear projects while creating construction and long-term operational jobs. Meta expects Prometheus to start operating around 2026 and has previously struck other long-term nuclear power deals and industry pledges to boost nuclear capacity for AI workloads. Oklo is backed by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and TerraPower and Oklo projects remain under development with potential power start dates in the early 2030s.
