The Three Mile Island nuclear plant, home of the worst nuclear accident in U.S. history, would restart under a deal in which Microsoft purchases all its power.

👍👍👍

The tax breaks in the Inflation Recovery Act are crucial to making the deal economically feasible, according to Constellation. They provide a credit for every megawatt hour of nuclear energy produced.

lmao so instead of this funding the energy transition it’s just subsidizing the AI grift

    Hey thanks for this response. I’ll try to refrain from going too much farther down the rhetorical line I was kind of representing if this particular incident comes up again. Nuclear energy has always seemed boss to me but I like the way you frame this with these different contexts
