A power company is planning to restart a dormant nuclear reactor at Pennsylvania's Three Mile Island nuclear generating station to help meet the power demands of high-tech data centers.Constellation Energy announced Friday it planned to bring the Unit 1 reactor at Three Mile Island back into operation and keep it running for decades.Microsoft has signed a 20-year agreement to buy power from Constellation's operation.

The undamaged TMI-1 was kept offline until 1985, then shut down again in 2019 because it was not economically feasible to keep the plant running.Now, Constellation is planning to invest to bring TMI-1's systems back up to operating readiness, which will involve overhauls of the reactor's cooling systems, turbines and power transformers.RELATED STORY | Three Mile Island's Nuclear LegacyOfficials hope the restart will power not just data centers, but local economies as well.
