Trump's Ai Plan Meets 'Energy Dominance'

ALLEGHENY COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, JUL 21 – The US plans over $90 billion in investments to integrate nuclear and natural gas power with AI infrastructure, addressing surging data center energy demands, officials said.

  • This past week, summit organizers announced $92 billion in new investments, with Dario Amodei, Ruth Porat, and Darren Woods attending the Pennsylvania Energy and Innovation Summit.
  • The surge in AI-driven power demand prompted new investment talks, with INKWOOD Research attributing an unprecedented increase in energy needs from data centres, which could consume 21% of global electricity by 2030.
  • While Google has partnered with Kairos Power on SMRs aiming for 500 MW by 2035, Microsoft is working to restart the Three Mile Island plant with a 20-year deal with Constellation Energy.
  • Natural gas and nuclear energy currently offer the only scalable and reliable options, White House assistant press secretary Liz Huston said, `fully unleashing American energy dominance, driving down costs, and fuelling economic prosperity`.
  • Future collaboration between tech and energy leaders may define the Fourth Industrial Revolution, as American AI expertise and Middle Eastern energy foresight are converging into a mutually beneficial global opportunity.
