The companies intend to advance 1 SOLO reactor pilot with expansion option of 100 SOLOs to power Uvation’s rapidly growing data-center ecosystem
Terra Innovatum Global N.V. (NASDAQ: NKLR), a developer of micro-modular nuclear reactors and Uvation Inc., an integrated technology provider enabling global AI infrastructure and specializing in the development of large-scale data centers engineered to support dense, high-performance AI clusters, have announced the signing of a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to launch a 1 MWe pilot program with a strategic option to scale up to 100 MWe supporting Uvation’s rapidly-growing AI and data center infrastructure needs.
“Uvation’s data center expansion requires infrastructure that is not only scalable, but fundamentally resilient. By integrating Terra Innovatum’s SOLO micro-modular reactor, we will offer a behind-the-meter energy source capable of delivering safe, stable, high-density power that traditional grids cannot guarantee,” said Alessandro Petruzzi, Co-Founder & CEO at Terra Innovatum. “SOLO adds built-in safety and provides redundancy – important for data centers, de-risking energy deployment during maintenance or shutdowns, ensuring continuity independent of power shortages, and enhancing cybersecurity protection. This enables next-generation, high-performance modular data centers powered by a clean, uninterrupted energy backbone – unlocking new possibilities for AI, HPC, and mission-critical workloads,” he continued.
Giordano Morichi, Founding Partner, Chief Business Development Officer & Investor Relations commented: “As AI infrastructure outpaces today’s grid, the constraint is no longer processing power – it’s reliable, cost-effective power. Uvation’s future commitment to behind-the-meter nuclear reflects a broader market reality: energy security now defines the speed at which AI can scale. SOLO fast-tracks AI commercialization by providing near-instant, CO₂-free, revenue-generating power while sidestepping the delays and capex overruns inherent to traditional grid-dependent solutions. This agreement also strengthens our commercial deployment and positions nuclear as the most viable path to support Uvation’s planned multi-gigawatt growth in the AI and data center sector.”
“Global demand for AI, driven by the US, and the need for sovereign cloud infrastructure is accelerating far faster than the available power to support it. Some of our off-takers forecast demand exceeding 1GW, yet current infrastructure and lack of readily available access to energy limit the scale of deployments,” shared Reen Singh, CEO of Uvation. He added: “Power shortages have been major forces in this industry’s project delays. By integrating Terra Innovatum’s SOLO reactor into our future roadmap, we will look to secure immediate power along with a reliable, behind-the-meter energy source that enables scalable AI, inference, and edge deployments. Our future 1MWe SOLO pilot program represents a critical first step, with a path to expand to 100 MWe across multiple sites and potentially several megawatt-scale installations throughout the US.”
