AI-driven power demand revives global nuclear energy push: Report

New Delhi [India], May 24 (ANI): The rapid rise in electricity demand from artificial intelligence (AI) data centres is emerging as a major factor behind the global revival of nuclear energy, according to a thematic report by Deven Choksey Research.

The report noted that AI-led power consumption, coupled with energy security concerns and decarbonisation goals, is pushing countries to reconsider nuclear energy as a reliable long-term power source.

“AI data centers are projected to exponentially rise the energy demand to 1600 terra-watt hours by 2034,” the report said.
