OpenAI is in talks to buy fusion energy from Helion

SMRTR summary

OpenAI is negotiating to buy massive amounts of electricity from fusion startup Helion Energy, potentially securing 5 gigawatts by 2030 and scaling to 50 gigawatts by 2035. This deal would dwarf Helion's current 50-megawatt commitment with Microsoft, requiring roughly 100 fusion reactors by 2030 alone.
