Major companies are clustering to develop "micro reactors", is the spring of the nuclear energy Industry coming?
The goal of micro-reactors is to replace diesel and Henry Hub Natural Gas generators, which are widely used in Datacenters, remote Communities, and offshore Oil & Gas platforms. The output power of micro-reactors is typically around 20 megawatts, sufficient to power approximately 20,000 households.
USA nuclear energy companies are competing to develop micro-reactors that are small enough to fit into shipping containers.
① Westinghouse is developing heat pipe cooling eVinci micro-reactors to provide Energy for remote areas, mining operations, Datacenters, etc., as a replacement for diesel Generators; ② The micro-reactor market is still emerging but faces challenges regarding safe construction, Transportation, and running, and the International Atomic Energy Institutions may release brand new safety standards.
Altman "launching a Satellite": will demonstrate nuclear fusion breakthrough "soon".
Altman predicts that his invested company Helion will soon demonstrate net energy gain nuclear fusion. Net energy gain nuclear fusion is regarded as an important milestone in achieving controllable nuclear fusion power generation. Despite breakthroughs in the scientific community, the Industry generally believes that the goal of generating Energy through fusion is still far away.
AI consumes more electricity? Current forecasts are too conservative! The US Energy Department predicts that the electrical utilities demand from datacenters will grow approximately 2-3 times by 2028.
Considering the growing demand for AI Servers, the US Energy Department predicts that from 2023 to 2028, the Electrical Utilities demand of Datacenters in the United States is expected to grow by 13-27% each year, higher than the 15% forecasted by many Institutions.
AI will continue to "promote" in 2025, and these Nuclear Power stocks are favored by Wall Street.
① At the beginning of the New Year, Nuclear Power stocks surged rapidly driven by new Trade activities, and Wall Street Analysts expect promising future growth propelled by the AI boom. ② UBS Group Analysts predict that Nuclear Power stocks such as Constellation Energy, Vistra, and Talen Energy will see an average increase of 29% by 2025 due to surging AI-related Electrical Utilities demand.

Even opponents can be a boost! Trump may still ultimately be Bullish for clean Energy?
① For a long time, Trump has had a contentious relationship with the NENGYUANHANGYE in the USA; ② however, some industry insiders indicate that Trump's ascendance may not only bring Bearish impacts for the clean energy sector...
Too much increase! Hedge Funds are starting to reduce their holdings in USA Nuclear Power stocks.
Recently, with the strong rebound of Nuclear Power stocks, some hedge fund managers have started to be cautious about their high valuations and have reduced their exposure to Nuclear Power stocks. However, Guy Keller, the portfolio manager at Tribeca, also stated that he would never establish short positions.
AI has become a "power-hungry monster"! U.S. regulatory institutions warn that some areas may face electrical utilities shortages as early as next year.
① The American Electric Power regulatory agency NERC warned on Tuesday that the North American power grid faces "serious reliability challenges" due to generation not keeping up with the increasing demand from AI; ② NERC found that the surge in electricity consumption in the next decade, along with the closure of coal-fired power plants, will put immense pressure on the power grids of the United States and Canada.
Centrus Energy to Participate in Goldman Sachs Energy, CleanTech & Utilities Conference
Canada is considering imposing export taxes on Commodities such as Uranium to respond to the trade war initiated by Trump.
① Canada is researching imposing taxes on exports to the USA in response to Trump's potential trade war, including Uranium, oil, and potash; ② The Canadian government may first implement retaliatory tariffs and export controls, reserving taxation as a last resort; ③ If the USA exempts only Energy products, this situation may also prompt Canada to impose export taxes.

AI is driving up the demand for Electrical Utilities! According to Morgan Stanley, the market has underestimated niche areas such as Fuel Cell Energy and Bitcoin mining sites.
Morgan Stanley believes that the reutilization of Fuel Cell Energy and Bitcoin mining sites will provide new Energy solutions for Datacenters. Technologies for Electrical Utilities transmission and grid enhancement are crucial for the efficient and safe electricity use of Datacenters, and it is recommended to pay attention to power generation facilities such as Nuclear Power located near Datacenters. Legislative proposals in Texas may promote the construction of Henry Hub Natural Gas power plants, and the new Trump administration will take measures to support the growth of AI infrastructure.
