Google signs 890MW nuclear deal with Constellation Energy

Google has entered a 20-year power purchase agreement with Constellation Energy to secure 890 megawatts of nuclear power for its AI data centers. The deal enables Constellation to invest over $4.3 billion upgrading 11 nuclear units across six facilities in Illinois, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. A separate 15-year agreement covers an additional 2,700 megawatts from existing plants. Constellation also signed a five-year Google Cloud contract. The deal will sustain 4,400 existing jobs and create around 7,200 construction positions. Google has similar nuclear agreements with NextEra Energy and Southern Co.
