We need to scale nuclear fast. We need to expand solar faster. We need every source of energy we can get, now. China’s building 29 large nuclear reactors right now. The U.S. has none under construction. High costs, regulatory delays and market challenges hold us back, though advanced smaller reactors are emerging. AI’s energy demand is about to go vertical, and the grid isn’t ready. If we don’t start building, the next power crisis won’t come from oil or gas, it’ll come from data centers.
