flag Brookfield offers $2.7B to finish South Carolina’s stalled nuclear reactors, aiming to supply AI-driven data centers with clean power.

flag Brookfield Asset Management has proposed a $2.7 billion deal to revive South Carolina’s stalled V.C. flag Summer nuclear project, offering to complete two unfinished reactors and cover most of the state-owned utility Santee Cooper’s debt. flag The agreement, still in early negotiations with a final decision expected by June 2026, would allow Brookfield to retain at least 75% of the power—likely for data centers fueled by AI demand—while Santee Cooper receives cash and a 25% ownership stake. flag The project faces major hurdles, including aging infrastructure, outdated permits, and a history of cost overruns, but supporters say it could deliver carbon-free electricity and reduce customer debt.
