Crusoe and Aalo Atomics disclosed a strategic partnership aimed at developing and deploying the first nuclear-powered AI Factory data center to validate nuclear power’s effectiveness with AI workloads. The companies framed the effort around powering data center operations with nuclear reactors.

Crusoe described its business focus as AI infrastructure, including a modular data center program and an AI cloud platform. Aalo Atomics said it began work on a second nuclear reactor at Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and plans power delivery tied to on-site modular data center deployments.

The planned setup includes Aalo powering a Crusoe Spark modular data center running Crusoe Cloud. Aalo also cited deployment plans for Aalo Pods and Aalo’s 50 MWe XMR power plants at Crusoe data centers, with the two companies connecting the reactor outputs to the data center power requirements described in the partnership.

As a proof of concept, Aalo will initially power a Crusoe Spark modular data center at INL in 2027. Looking forward, the companies intend to deploy Aalo Pods and Aalo’s 50 MWe XMR power plants at Crusoe data centers by the end of 2029. Crusoe and Aalo also referenced Aalo’s progress toward full power operation of its 10 MWe Aalo-X reactor. “The next generation of AI infrastructure demands power that is reliable, abundant, clean and at scale, and Aalo’s nuclear reactors are built to meet that need,” said Cully Cavness, Co-Founder, President and Chief Strategy Officer, Crusoe. “As one of only four companies to reach criticality by President Trump’s deadline for companies in the DOE Reactor Pilot Program, we are now well positioned for not only the full power operation of our 10 MWe Aalo-X reactor, but also the deployment of the Aalo Pod to power commercial data centers,” said Matt Loszak, CEO, Aalo Atomics.
