PREUSSENELEKTRA AND NVIDIA REVIEW FORMER NUCLEAR SITES FOR AI DATA CENTERS

What happened: PreussenElektra, an E.ON unit, said Oct. 21 that Nvidia is participating in its evaluation of former nuclear sites for AI data center use. Key numbers: Announcement dated Oct. 21. Nvidia projects Vera Rubin systems could serve workloads in as little as 14 days at prepared sites, versus roughly six months for conventional deployment. Why it matters: The review points to repurposing former power generation locations for AI computing. Nvidia's 14-day figure is a projection, not a reported result at an operating facility.
