  "account": "NuScale Power, a small modular reactor (SMR) developer based in the U.S., is poised to play a pivotal role in the growing nuclear industry as demand for energy-intensive compute power surges due to the AI boom. With its SMRs, which can be built faster and more affordably than traditional nuclear plants, NuScale could potentially revolutionize the sector by constructing facilities closer to data center infrastructure. However, the stock has plummeted by 40% this year, sparking skepticism among investors. The company has yet to commercialize any of its SMR designs, and its biggest customer pulled out of a project in 2023, marking its first significant setback. As the industry races to capitalize on the AI-driven energy demand, only time will tell if NuScale's innovative approach can overcome these hurdles and deliver substantial returns for its shareholders.",
