On January 9, 2026, Meta announced a set of nuclear energy agreements totaling up to 6.6 gigawatts of clean power by 2035, aimed at supplying the grids that serve its data centers - most prominently the Prometheus AI supercluster under construction in New Albany, Ohio. The package spanned existing reactors and not-yet-built advanced ones, signaling the scale of power a single AI operator was now contracting for.
The agreements named multiple partners. A deal with Vistra provided more than 2.1 gigawatts from two Ohio plants, the Perry and Davis-Besse stations, plus 433 megawatts of uprate capacity, and supported the Beaver Valley plant in Pennsylvania. A separate agreement with TerraPower covered up to 2.8 gigawatts of baseload from as many as eight potential Natrium reactor units, and an agreement with Oklo covered up to 1.2 gigawatts from a facility in Pike County, Ohio. These built on Meta’s June 2025 Clinton deal with Constellation.
The announcement was a marker of how far the AI energy problem had escalated in roughly a year. Where 2024 saw single-plant deals measured in the hundreds of megawatts, Meta was now assembling a multi-gigawatt nuclear portfolio across several developers and technologies to underwrite a single computing buildout - and committing to advanced reactor designs, like TerraPower’s Natrium and Oklo’s, that had not yet been built at commercial scale.
