Welcome to The Zenergy Podcast! On this episode, host Karan Takhar is joined by Mike Kramer, Vice President of Data Economy Strategy at Constellation. As the AI boom takes shape, the demand on data centers to have 24/7, reliable power is increasing. Karan and Mike discuss how nuclear power could be part of the solution to increasing this supply. They chat about how nuclear has evolved over the past few decades and where it is today as well as why it hasn’t taken off in the ways some hoped it would. They also discuss the trajectory of AI-related energy demand, how the recent tax bill could affect nuclear power, and what excites Mike most about Constellations role in shaping the future of clean energy in the U.S. If you’re curious about where we might get the energy needed to power the latest and the upcoming AI tools, this is the episode for you.
