Amazon, Facebook and other global mega companies undertake a pact to triple nuclear energy! According to them, future technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and the production of synthetic fuels can hardly be implemented because they have an enormous energy requirement.
Improvement of energy security, resistance and continuous determination (so -called) clean energy – with these arguments, the most important worldwide companies on the outskirts of the International Energy Summit in Texas have come together to form a groundbreaking alliance that places all other form of the world in the sector.
View nuclear energy by 2050
In addition to 14 major worldwide banks and financial institutions, 140 companies in the nuclear industry and 31 countries have joined the powerful alliance in which Google, Amazon, Meta and Dow set the tone. Colored goal: at least triple the global nuclear capacity by 2050.
“Clean and safe nuclear energy”
“Our call is supported by the” World Nuclear Association “and brings together all those global companies that have acknowledged that they need clean, safe and abundant nuclear energy to stimulate their future growth,” says the latest explanation of the founding lectators.
Greenpeace, permanent raised energy -requires, warns
The background of the offensive is the massively increased energy requirement for the operation of mega calculations. According to this, Google would need more than 29 Terawatt -hours of electricity annually – this corresponds to the annual consumption of the whole of Ireland. This is due to the fact that even simple AI interactions due to data processing and algoritic structure use considerably more electricity than conventional websites.
Hope and well-justified expectations of the actors: a growing interest in nuclear energy from different industries such as shipping, aviation and even the oil and gas industry. Greenpeace and Global 2000 – Given this superiority, they think of lost items – from the fact that nuclear energy is anything but sustainable and remains extremely dangerous. “As we mainly know about the Super-Gau in Chernobyl, she has the potential to contaminate entire areas. And radioactive waste has been shining for thousands of years,” warns Alex Egit and Patricia Lorenz.
The Sayed Ashraf of the International Atomic Energy Organization sees it differently: “The nuclear energy is one of the safest forms of energy generation, can help solve climate change and reduce emissions such as low -carbon sources.” On the COP 28 top, all countries would have acknowledged that nuclear energy “plays a crucial role in solving the problem of climate change. Moreover, 31 countries signed a statement to triple the nuclear energy capacity by 2050.”
Georg Steinhauser of the Vienna University of Technology recently said in the “Krone” interview that “small, modular reactors can fill a gap” that so far has not been able to cover the electricity requirement where it falls “. Moreover, it could be operated autonomously and even be built underground.
