Constellation Energy is the dominant winner of the AI nuclear power land grab, giving it pricing power over AI compute's most critical input. Hyperscalers' net-zero targets rule out coal and gas, and only nuclear offers 24/7 zero-carbon baseload, so data centers must sign PPAs with its 22,000MW fleet. The inflation-indexed IRA tax credit floors profits while leaving price upside uncapped. Calpine adds 21,000MW and ERCOT and PJM merchant upside; 2026 EPS is guided at $11-12 with 20%+ growth. x.comÂ
