An article on nuclear power argues it will matter for AI buildout from 2028 onward, and the post highlights several large-scale global trends.
- The U.S. and China together account for more than half of projected 2050 nuclear capacity.
- France still runs the most nuclear-dependent grid on Earth today.
- Russia dominates exports of reactor technology and raw materials.
- India is expected to have the fastest-growing nuclear program.
The attached chart also shows today’s operating capacity, capacity under construction, and 2050 national targets.
