The most important AI company you’ve never heard of

AI has an enormous appetite for power

Every AI interaction requires electricity. When you ask ChatGPT a question, generate an image, or use an AI-powered search engine, thousands of computers inside massive data centers work together to produce a response.

Those facilities consume enormous amounts of energy. As AI models become more capable and widely used, electricity demand continues to rise. That creates a challenge many investors never anticipated.

Building more chips and data centers is difficult. But building new power generation may be even harder. New power plants often require years of permitting, environmental reviews, regulatory approvals, and construction before they can begin producing electricity.

That’s a problem because AI demand is growing today. Without power, even the most advanced AI chip becomes an expensive piece of silicon.

A surprising move from Microsoft

One of the most important developments in AI over the past few years didn’t come from a new chatbot or a breakthrough chip. It came from the energy sector.

In late 2024, Microsoft signed a long-term agreement tied to the restart of a nuclear reactor at Three Mile Island, a facility best known for the 1979 nuclear accident that changed public perception of nuclear energy in the United States.

One of the world’s most valuable technology companies is helping bring a nuclear reactor back into operation. Why?

Because Microsoft has long understood something many investors are only beginning to appreciate. The future of AI depends on both computing power and electrical power.
