A Three Mile Island nuclear reactor could restart under a new deal with Microsoft

Second Nuclear Site to restart

Constellation announced a 20-year deal with Microsoft, and a restart of one of the units at Three Mile Island.

It seems Data Centers are going to have a major impact on the generation mix. There are as many 11 Reactors that are in SAFSTOR status may be in a condition to restart, the other reactors that have been closed are not in a condition to restart. For some of the reactors, it might take as much as 5 years to be restarted. NOTE: I said "MAY" not could.
