Trump DOE loans $5B to nuclear plants that will power data centers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Trump administration is giving Constellation Energy $5 billion in loans to expand nuclear generating capacity at eight power plants by 1.1 gigawatts. Most or all of the additional power from seven of those facilities has already been bought by Google, Meta, or Amazon. Constellation said it plans to use the financing to “uprate” 11 existing reactors, an industry term for expanding capacity at a reactor, often by using more highly enriched uranium and by upgrading equipment to handle the incre…
Ford Fathom will be the cheapest American EV capable of powering a house (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ford announced two new EV chargers today that will allow its forthcoming Fathom pickup truck to serve as a battery capable of delivering power to the home or grid. The new chargers promise to be about half the cost of Ford’s existing equivalent products, which could make the technology available to more households. Ford said the Fathom itself will start at $28,350. The Fathom will be capable of delivering “over 10 kW” to a home, Ford said. That would allow the electric vehicle to substitute for …
Fusion startups are giving the government shares in exchange for awards. Is it worth it? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The U.S. government has long had an on-again, off-again relationship with the fusion power sector. As of last week, it’s definitely back on.

Helion landed $175 million, while CFS reeled in $85 million. But as w…
Commonwealth Fusion Systems gets $85M to build better fusion-ready semiconductors (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) announced on Thursday that it would receive $85 million from the U.S. government to develop advanced chips for the fusion power industry. Fusion power startups have been racing to complete their first demonstration devices, with CFS aiming to turn on its Sparc reactor sometime next year. But building one reactor is just a proof point. If fusion startups want to build dozens of commercial power plants, they’ll need more durable power electronics and a robust supp…
OpenAI working on new $30B raise at $1.25T valuation ahead of IPO (opens the original)
Read excerpt
OpenAI is reportedly close to securing another mega round of private funding, rather than plowing ahead with an IPO. The AI lab is working on raising up to $30 billion at a $1.25 trillion pre-money valuation in a round led by Coatue and investors in UAE, sources told CNBC. This follows a similar report by Bloomberg a month ago which said the AI lab was working on raising $30 billion at a $1.4 trillion valuation. Terms are still being negotiated, both outlets report, so they could ultimately chan…
