In response to the escalating power requirements spurred by advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), the Trump administration has outlined a strategy to inject tens of billions of dollars into Westinghouse Electric. This investment is geared towards facilitating the construction of new nuclear power plants throughout the United States. Such a move could potentially elevate Westinghouse to the status of an independently listed public company, with the U.S. government poised to assume a substantial stake. The underlying objective of this initiative is to fortify the energy infrastructure essential for the AI revolution, thereby establishing the government as a pivotal financial supporter in the advancement of critical industries.
