Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp owner Meta announced that it has signed a series of large-scale nuclear power agreements, supporting up to 6.6 GW of energy by 2035 and enabling the social media and technology giant to help meet the energy demand of its rapidly growing data center footprint in the U.S., while maintaining progress on its clean energy and sustainability goals.
Seems like the growth model has just taken a big leap, but is it a leap forward, or backward?
Any thoughts on connecting the dots here?
