Nuclear comeback: How AI is revitalizing the sector and American Atomics is becoming a key player alongside General Electric and Siemens
The year is 2026, and global energy markets are evolving rapidly. The narrative of nuclear power as a thing of the past is history – CO2 neutrality and energy security increasingly depend on reliable base-load generation. Driving this change is the rapidly growing energy demand of artificial intelligence. Hyperscalers and data centers require stable, 24/7 power that wind and solar alone cannot guarantee. In this new nuclear era, technology giants such as General Electric and Siemens are central as they build the reactors and grids of the future. However, the most attractive niche may lie at the start of the value chain: American Atomics is addressing uranium supply challenges with new technologies and secure US locations.
