Constellation Energy to restart Three Mile Island nuclear plant, sell the power to Microsoft for AI

Constellation described the agreement with Microsoft as the largest power purchase agreement that the nuclear plant operator has ever signed.

Three Mile Island was the worst nuclear accident in US history. Was mainly caused by poor design of human feedback systems which caused operational confusion and lead to a catastrophic failure.
