Orlen Synthos Green Energy (OSGE) and the Polish Data Center Association have formed a working group dedicated to using small modular reactors (SMRs) to supply the huge amounts of power needed for Poland’s booming data centre industry.

OSGE said the primary objective of the working group is to develop a white paper outlining the potential for cooperation between the data centre sector and SMR developers, along with possible challenges.

The paper will include an analysis of the technological aspects of both sectors, identify areas of synergy and recommend the potential legislative and regulatory changes needed to accelerate collaboration between the two industries.
