Un gigawatt, s’il vous plaît
In the race to build ever-larger super-mega-jumbo AI data centers, one thing can set you apart from the pack: cheap, plentiful energy.
France produces a surplus of electricity from its 57 nuclear reactors in 18 power plants, so it’s a prime spot for the power-hungry data centers.
The Wall Street Journal is reporting that French President Emmanuel Macron is pledging a gigawatt of its nuclear power as part of a $113 billion play at making the country the center for European AI computing.
The report said AI company FluidStack is planning on buying 120,000 Nvidia GPUs to power the first phase of the project, which would rival the scale of the recently announced US-based Project Stargate.
