7:18Now PlayingThe infamous Three Mile Island nuclear plant is poised for a comeback, driven by AI’s massive energy needs. Thanks to a long-term agreement signed by Microsoft Corp. and Constellation Energy Corp. in September 2024, the energy from the plant will power chatbots and other artificial intelligence applications. All this under a new and baggage-free name: the Crane Clean Energy Center. The agreement commits Microsoft to buying all the electricity produced by the site’s remaining functional 835-megawatt reactor for 20 years. Bloomberg News Energy Reporter Will Wade joins to discuss the return of the nuclear power plant on Three Mile Island.
