NANO Nuclear and Tillman plan up to 6 GW for US data centers by 2040

NANO Nuclear Energy and Tillman Global Holdings signed a non-binding framework to explore deploying advanced nuclear reactors for US AI data centers, targeting at least 2 GW by the mid-2030s and 6 GW or more by 2040. The plan identifies NANO Nuclear as Tillman's preferred technology provider for its AI industrial zones. The companies will evaluate sites, licensing, customer demand, and financing, with a strategy to reserve space for nuclear alongside other power sources as campuses expand. NANO Nuclear's KRONOS MMR is a 15-megawatt high-temperature gas-cooled reactor designed for phased deployment. Tillman could receive warrants to purchase up to $100 million of NANO Nuclear stock, with most tied to project milestones, plus a $5 million restricted stock grant.
