Down time security Risk. Build more Nuclear power plants. Look at France!
 

Build more nuclear power plants INSTEAD OF WINDMILLS.  Any down time for a data center creates multiple NIST RMF security risks including National Security. Mother Earth takes care of itself. If you are concerned about the environment stop buying from the CCP.  If there is going to be a brown out, why would one NOT want power back up? Are you coming for my residential power back up next? Stop taxing the American worker to death so one can afford a $180,000 electric vehicle. How about we start with ending the rip off personal property tax. America has the cleanest energy.  Never should have stopped building Nuclear and hydroelectric power. France currently operates 18 nuclear power plants, housing a total of 56 reactors as of late 2025. These plants generate approximately 70% of the country's electricity, making France the world's largest producer of nuclear power by share of electricity mix.
