📡 Meta Becomes the Biggest Nuclear‑Energy Buyer Through a New Deal with Oklo and Vistra

9 January 2026
@wealthwise.dca

Meta struck three major nuclear energy agreements to secure up to 6.6 GW of nuclear power for its AI-driven data centers by 2035. The company will purchase power from Vistra’s Beaver Valley (PA), Perry (OH), and Davis-Besse (OH) nuclear plants under 20-year contracts, totaling more than 2,600 MW. Vistra said the PPAs will support license renewals that would extend reactor operations by 20 years. Meta will also back new small modular reactor projects: Oklo said its deal “advances its plans to develop a 1.2 GW power campus in Pike County, Ohio,” including mechanisms for Meta to prepay for power. Meta will also help fund TerraPower’s development of two reactors generating up to 690 MW by 2032, with rights to energy from six additional reactors by 2035. #META #VST #OKLO #Vistra #TerraPower #METAStock #TIKRVistra #VSTStock #TIKRTerraPower #OKLOStock AI #NuclearEnergy #DataCenters #EnergyTransition #SmallModularReactors $META $VST $OKLO

⚡ “Flash Drive” in the Age of Atomic Cloud‑Power

Meta’s leap into 6 GW of nuclear‑powered AI feels uncannily like the emotional circuitry of Wave Racer’s “Flash Drive” with B▲by: a world where speed, brightness, and boundless processing become the new currency of desire. The duo’s mantra‑like refrain — “take you on a ride” — mirrors Big Tech’s own acceleration, an invitation into an infrastructure humming with invisible energy, where data moves with the same glossy, hyper‑optimistic shimmer as Wave Racer’s synths and B▲by’s crystalline vocal loops. Just as the track turns a tiny storage device into a portal of shared intensity, Meta transforms nuclear partnerships with Oklo and Vistra into a flash‑drive‑scaled metaphor for the future: compact, potent, and engineered for a ride that never slows down.

Meta’s new multi‑gigawatt agreements with Oklo and Vistra mark a decisive shift in how Big Tech powers the next generation of AI.

By securing more than 6 GW of nuclear capacity, the company positions itself as the largest nuclear‑energy buyer in the industry.

⚛️ A Strategic Power Play

Meta’s decision to lock in nuclear energy at this scale signals a long‑term bet on stable, carbon‑free baseload power—something intermittent renewables can’t yet guarantee for AI’s relentless demand. As model sizes grow and inference workloads multiply, the company is effectively building an energy moat around its future operations.

🔌 Why Nuclear, Why Now

AI data centers are becoming some of the most energy‑hungry infrastructures on the planet, and nuclear offers a rare combination: reliability, low emissions, and massive output. By partnering with Oklo’s advanced micro‑reactor designs and Vistra’s established nuclear fleet, Meta gains both innovation and immediate capacity.

🏗️ Reinventing the Data‑Center Backbone

This deal isn’t just about electricity—it’s about reshaping the architecture of Meta’s AI ecosystem. Nuclear‑powered data centers can operate with fewer fluctuations, enabling more predictable scaling, tighter latency control, and the ability to run high‑intensity training cycles without grid‑stress constraints.

🌍 Climate Optics and Corporate Influence

While nuclear remains politically divisive, Meta’s move reframes it as a climate‑aligned tool for the AI era. By normalizing nuclear procurement at this scale, the company may accelerate a broader shift in how tech giants—and eventually national grids—approach long‑term decarbonization.

🚀 The New Energy Arms Race

Meta’s nuclear pivot sets a new benchmark for Big Tech, raising the stakes for competitors still relying on mixed renewable portfolios. As AI accelerates, the companies that secure stable, clean, high‑density power will define the next decade of digital infrastructure.

Meta Energy Giant

The Grid‑Shaping Effect
Meta’s nuclear deal quietly signals that AI companies are no longer just tech firms — they’re becoming energy actors with influence comparable to national utilities. This shift means Meta isn’t simply buying power; it’s beginning to shape the future design of nuclear infrastructure itself. When a private company commits to 6 GW of demand, it effectively becomes a long‑term anchor customer capable of steering which reactor technologies get funded, which grids get upgraded, and which regions become AI‑energy hubs. It’s the early stage of a world where AI demand doesn’t follow the grid — the grid follows AI.
