The Bezos Earth Fund has awarded $3.5 million to the Nuclear Scaling Initiative (NSI) to enhance nuclear reactor construction in the U.S., aiming to achieve 50 gigawatts of nuclear energy globally by 2030. This funding will support a collaborative orderbook model to streamline reactor designs in response to projected increases in electricity demand. The initiative reflects a growing interest from Big Tech, including Amazon, in investing in nuclear power to meet future energy needs.
