The new plant, called Sizewell C, will take at least a decade to complete and provide enough energy to power six million homes.

The technology uses quite a bit of power and amount of the water needed to cool data systems is nothing if not problematic. That’s why Meta is planning for the future by inking a deal with a nuclear plant that could help power its AI aspirations over the next two decades.

The Sizewell C plant in Suffolk is expected to create around 10,000 jobs during the peak of construction, and produce enough electricity to power around 6 million homes when built.
