Leveraging Nuclear Energy for AI Innovation

The new facility will leverage France’s carbon-free nuclear energy to power up to 1 gigawatt (GW) of AI compute capacity, with plans to scale beyond that by 2028. “The project positions France as a premier global AI hub, offering unparalleled compute capacity for next-generation AI models,” Fluidstack said on February 10, 2025.

“France is the leading European country in artificial intelligence. Since 2017, we have trained our talents, developed our research, and strengthened our key players in healthcare, space, defense, and large language models. We have a role to play because our nuclear energy is controllable, safe, stable, and decarbonized—ideal for expanding our AI computing capabilities. This EUR 10 billion agreement with Fluidstack embodies my ambition. We must not slow down because the world is accelerating and the battle for innovation is happening now,” said Emmanuel Macron, President of the Republic.

“This partnership allows us to rapidly develop the infrastructure needed to support the next wave of AI innovations. Partnering with the French government and global industry leaders, we are creating the most advanced computing capabilities in the world—right here in France. France’s commitment to digital and energy sovereignty makes it the ideal location for such an ambitious project,” said Cesar Maklary, co-founder and president of Fluidstack.
