Valar Atomics, a nuclear power startup, said on Wednesday it is partnering with Nvidia to develop a small data center in Utah that the companies claim will show how computing facilities needed for AI can conserve water.
California-based Valar announced the partnership in Utah at the site of its small nuclear plant called a microreactor. It also ran a demonstration powering Nvidia's Blackwell, its latest AI chip architecture for data centers. It was the first time a small reactor powered a data center, the companies said.
