Aalo Atomics, a Texas-based nuclear energy company, has unveiled the industry's first fully modular reactor designed to meet the power demands of data centers. Dubbed the Aalo Pod, the company says that the prototype belongs to the category of XMR, or an extra modular reactor with extra flexibility and modularity, according to a press release. With the rise of demand for clean energy, nuclear power is poised for a major comeback as an energy source without any carbon emissions. Previous experiences in dealing with nuclear energy have faced issues such as project delays and cost overruns. Attempts are being made to avoid them using small modular reactor (SMR) designs.
