Meta seeks nuclear power developers for reactors to start in early 2030s

WASHINGTON, Dec 3 (Reuters) - Meta (META.O), opens new tab said on Tuesday it is seeking proposals from nuclear power developers to help meet its artificial intelligence and environment goals, becoming the latest big tech company to take interest in atomic power amid an expected boom in electricity demand.

The company wants to add 1 to 4 gigawatts of new U.S. nuclear generation capacity starting in the early 2030s, it said in a release. A typical U.S. nuclear plant has a capacity of about 1 gigawatt.


"At Meta, we believe nuclear energy will play a pivotal role in the transition to a cleaner, more reliable, and diversified electric grid," the company said in a release.
U.S. data center power use is expected to roughly triple between 2023 and 2030 and will require about 47 gigawatts of new generation capacity, according to Goldman Sachs estimates.
But it will be tough to swiftly meet soaring power demand with nuclear reactors, as companies face an overburdened U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission, potential uranium fuel supply obstacles and local opposition.


Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab and Constellation Energy (CEG.O), opens new tab announced a deal in September to restart a unit at the Three Mile Island plant in Pennsylvania in what would be the first-ever restart for a data center.


That announcement followed a similar agreement in March in which Amazon.com (AMZN.O), opens new tab, purchased a nuclear-powered data center from Talen Energy (TLN.O), opens new tab.
Meta said it is seeking developers with expertise in community engagement, development and permitting, and would consider either small modular reactors, an emerging part of the business that is not yet commercial, or larger nuclear reactors similar to today's fleet of U.S. nuclear plants.
Meta said it will take submissions from developers that want to take part in the request for proposals until Feb. 7, 2025.

The company said it was using the request-for-proposal process because, compared to renewable energy projects like solar and wind, nuclear is more capital-intensive, takes longer to develop, and is subject to more regulatory requirements.
"An RFP process will allow us to approach these projects thoroughly and thoughtfully with these considerations in mind," it said.

Former BP boss Looney to chair US data company Prometheus Hyperscale
By Reuters
November 24, 20243:06 PM MSTUpdated 19 hours ago

Nov 24 (Reuters) - Oil major BP's former CEO Bernard Looney is set to chair Prometheus Hyperscale, the U.S.-based data company said on Sunday.
Looney, who resigned in 2023 after four years in the British energy giant's top job for failing to fully disclose details of past personal relationships with colleagues, will provide strategic guidance on the development of the data-driven company's growth plans, Prometheus Hyperscale said in a statement.

In his new role, Looney will also assist with tasks including work on the company's flagship $10 billion data center in Evanston, Wyoming, Prometheus Hyperscale said.
"I'm wishing BP well, and of course for me I'm thinking about the next 32 years of my career, and I can't think of anything more exciting, more challenging to do than get stuck into this space," Looney was quoted as telling the Financial Times in an interview published on Sunday.

In May, Prometheus Hyperscale, a company focused on data center infrastructure, signed, a partnership agreement with Oklo (OKLO.N), a nuclear energy company backed by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.

5 metric tons of HALEU

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) approved the conceptual design for Oklo Inc.’s Aurora Fuel Fabrication Facility.

The new facility will be located at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and will help turn used material recovered from DOE’s former EBR-II reactor into usable fuel for its advanced nuclear power plant.

Oklo anticipates the first commercial Aurora powerhouse will be deployed in 2027.

Fuel for Aurora
The Conceptual Safety Design Report was first submitted earlier this year to DOE’s Idaho Operations Office, which is responsible for the nuclear safety and regulatory authority for the project.

The approval of the design concept is an important step in demonstrating advanced fuel recycling technologies.

The Aurora powerhouse is a liquid-metal-cooled fast reactor that is designed to operate on both fresh high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) and used nuclear fuel.

The new facility will fabricate fuel using HALEU sourced from EBR-II.

Oklo has been granted access to 5 metric tons of HALEU as part of a cooperative agreement with INL that was competitively awarded in 2019. The newly fabricated fuel will be used to power the initial Aurora powerhouse reactor core at INL.

OKLO / Atomic Alchemy signs MOU with Zeno Power

https://oklo.com/newsroom/news-details/2024/Atomic-Alchemy-Oklos-Proposed-Acquisition-Target-Signs-MOU-with-Zeno-Power-to-Provide-Fuel-for-Commercial-Radioisotope-Power-Systems/default.aspx

Through this collaboration, Atomic Alchemy expects to supply Zeno Power with strontium-90 (Sr-90), americium-241 (Am-241), and other radioisotopes needed to power RPSs like Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators, or “nuclear batteries.” These systems are designed for remote and off-grid environments, such as space and undersea applications. These radioisotopes can be produced as coproducts from Oklo’s recycling processes.

Zeno Power’s novel design enables broad commercial use of RPSs in space and terrestrially. In late 2023, Zeno Power demonstrated its first Sr-90 heat source at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. To date, Zeno Power has secured over $65 million in contracts with National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the U.S. Navy, and the U.S. Space Force, enabling reliable clean power solutions for missions ranging from seabed exploration to lunar operations.

A bit of unexpected good news. Does not hurt the stock.

Best of luck with your investments!

Chris Wright / Energy Secretary ...

WASHINGTON, Nov 16 (Reuters) - President-elect Donald Trump said on Saturday that oil and gas industry executive Chris Wright, a staunch defender of fossil fuel use, would be his pick to lead the Department of Energy.
Wright is the founder and CEO of Liberty Energy, an oilfield services firm based in Denver. He is expected to support Trump's plan to maximize production of oil and gas and to seek ways to boost generation of electricity, demand for which is rising for the first time in decades.

Guess which company's board Chris Wright is on :

Oklo pipeline swells to 2.1 GW

https://www.utilitydive.com/news/oklo-reactor-pipeline-swells-to-2-gigawattsw-as-demonstration-project-advances/733214/


The advanced reactor company has completed key milestones for its first planned deployment and added up to 750 MW in potential future orders, CEO Jacob DeWitte said on Oklo’s Q3 2024 earnings call.

Oklo has received nonbinding letters of intent to provide up to 750 MW from its Aurora powerhouse reactors to two major data center operators, expanding its project pipeline to approximately 2,100 MW, the advanced reactor company said Wednesday.

Separately, Oklo in September finalized an agreement with the U.S. Department of Energy and secured an environmental compliance permit, allowing it to move forward with site characterization for its first reactor deployment, planned for Idaho National Laboratory in late 2027, the company said Thursday in its Q3 2024 investor update.

Oklo plans to submit an initial combined license application for its 15-MW microreactor design to the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission next year in support of the INL deployment, followed shortly by subsequent combined license applications for early commercial deployments, CEO Jacob DeWitte said on a Thursday earnings call.

One of the more interesting aspects of OKLO:

Oklo’s fast fission reactors can run on recycled fuel while producing valuable radioisotopes as byproducts, allowing it to integrate radioisotope production into its fuel recycling process, it said.

That capability could allow Oklo to monetize fission products that would otherwise be discarded, reducing its net operating costs and making its power business more profitable, DeWitte said.

I initiated a position. NuScale and OKLO can be both successful in this sector.

Best of luck with your investments!

Ross Givens says Nvidia (NVDA), Supermicro (SMCI) were part of the 1st wave in the A.I. Boom. But now, he sees "backdoor" plays in the A.I. investment space such as nuclear power. Givens lists Nuscale (SMR), Nano Nuclear Energy (NNE) and Oklo Inc. (OKLO) among his A.I. second wave watch list.

Traders have probably run this up so expect the price to fall back. Operation of the plant is three years away and there is the question of the transmission line capability to handle the load.

Very good post. Thanks for sharing.

OKLO

It's a very informative video,but note that it is from a month ago. Looks like around 2nd week November, the founding shares lockup will expire, so we need to watch out for a drop around that time.Altman & some of the founders shares are locked up for 3 years, but even those have some kind of exception based on stock price staying above a certain price for a period of 20 consecutive days( the video also talks about this). Since OKLO is already hitting the roof, we need to watch out for this aspect.

No wonder the stock price has soared. She just bought $2.4 Million worth of shares out of 122M float available..

The share price is also riding on the reputation of the CEO, Sam Altman, founder of OpenAI and ChatGPT. Very credible management.

But this is a development stage company and a long-term stock play. It is going to take years to get their 1st SMR up and running

I am definitely interested in owning some shares or long-dated call options, but at a more reasonable price. So I will wait until the hype wave dissipates.

And I would like to hear what the new President is going to do about the national energy needs. There is supposed to be an acute shortage until about 2030.

Yes,the key part I believe is "sell the power to Microsoft as the company searches for energy sources to fuel its AI ambitionst".So basically, if Microsoft is lining up for nuclear energy for AI, there will be a rush for nuclear energy from other tech giant AI players too. The AI thing (call it hype or call it a necessity),is just beginning. So the SMR (small modular reactor) companies(like NNE,SMR,OKLO) will gain prominence in the next few years. These take time to build and actually produce nuclear energy though.They are all a few years away to start output,but nuclear energy is definitely the future.

THEY ARE NOT CHEAP TO BUILD OKLO

https://www.stockscores.com/charts/charts/?ticker=OKLO

Am a believer in OKLO too.Admit that the names Sam Altman and Cathie wood are a major part of the charm here! Have high hopes on this company.

Oklo is probably in the best position of the three public nuclear startups (SMR, OKLO, NNE), but I fear they will all face the same problems soon enough...

Oklo has significant cash reserves, but they have already doubled costs in comparison to what they projected in 2023. I would be surprised if they managed to build their first facility in Idaho on time and on budget…

That isn't even a knock on the company. All of these larger-scale and novel projects tend to take longer than expected.

But even if we go off of their estimates, then it will take Oklo around three years to generate any real revenues. That assumes everything goes smoothly.

NuScale Power (SMR) had its project in Utah terminated after cost estimates continued to increase. In 2015, they assumed the project would cost $3 billion, but by 2023, it was estimated to cost $9.3 billion…

We also have to hope there aren’t any lawsuits that slow down progress further. I have a sneaking suspicion that the not-in-my-backyard (NIMBY) crowd will have it out for companies like Oklo. The last thing a startup company needs is endless litigation that slowly bankrupts the firm.

Jim Cramer: Oklo Is Losing Money 'Hand-Over-Fist
9:03 AM ET Sep-05-2024 Benzinga

Jim Cramer said "Oklo Inc. (OKLO.NaE) is a company that is again losing so much money “hand-over-fist I can't even look at it.”

On Aug. 13, Oklo (OKLO.NaE) reported a quarterly loss of $5.17 per share, versus a year-ago loss of 6 cents per share.

No wonder the SP keeps hitting 52 Wk Low. I suspect this will be the case for quite awhile.At least till the end of 2025 / beginning of 2026, unless some mind blowing news is released before then. I wish it were different.
