Two infrastructure giants are repurposing a decommissioned nuclear facility into hyperscale data center capacity. U.S. power infrastructure—particularly in regions with existing grid strength and energy remediation—has become the limiting factor for AI compute expansion. The partnership between an energy company and a real estate behemoth indicates that data center development is a capital-intensive, land-and-power-constrained infrastructure challenge requiring deep pockets and decades-long site control.
