Odd Lots · Jigar Shah on the Three Big Things Driving the Nuclear Energy Revival · 30 Sep 2024 podcast

And if we use AP1000s, which is what we built at the Vogel, then you could build almost 95,000 megawatts at those same sites.

But those are

More like $10 to $14 billion each, right?

And so you have to decide whether you want to spend that much money.

So they're not going to be within the security perimeter.

They'd be outside of the security perimeter.

And most of these nuclear plants are in fairly regular.

Yeah.

These are somewhere.

I grew up near a nuclear.

No, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

But uh but you know, but they're gonna be, let's say, five to seven miles away.

And so you don't need to use a transmission infrastructure and tax it.

You can create your own line directly from the nuclear plant to the data center.

And so that saves a

A lot of cost because now you don't have to pay for the transmission.

And so that's why a lot of this co-location makes a lot of sense.

It also disrupts the grid the least.

And then the other thing that is so great about this co-location idea is that the people who live around a nuclear power plant love nuclear power plants.
