Nvidia ($NVDA) has made its first move into nuclear power by partnering with PG&E ($PCG)'s Diablo Canyon Nuclear plant. The collaboration aims to integrate AI technology into the plant's operations, utilizing a tool called Neutron Enterprise developed by local startup Atomic Canyon and powered by Nvidia. This initiative is part of Diablo Canyon's efforts to secure a 20-year license extension. The AI systems will be deployed directly inside the plant to enhance security and operational efficiency, making it a 24/7 power source. The Diablo Canyon plant, which was recently saved from closure, represents California's only remaining nuclear facility.
