    Amazon just bought a 100% nuclear-powered data center

    "One of the US’s largest nuclear power plants will directly power cloud service provider Amazon Web Services’ new data center.Power provider Talen Energy sold its data center campus, Cumulus Data Assets, to Amazon Web Services for $650 million. Amazon will develop an up to 960-megawatt (MW) data center at the Salem Township site in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania"

    Why? part time solar or wind will never be the 100% of the time required for many parts of the power grids. They can be a part of some places of course.
