Westinghouse to Accelerate US Nuclear Reactor Construction and Enhance Operations with Google Cloud AI
Together, the two companies will pair Westinghouse's powerful HiVE™ and bertha™ nuclear AI solutions with Google Cloud technologies and expertise to streamline construction of new nuclear plants. AI tools will also improve the current nuclear fleet with data-driven AI insights.
'As the only fully licensed, construction ready modular reactor available today, our AP1000 ® technology is the quickest way to add new sources of affordable and abundant nuclear energy to the U.S. grid,' said Dan Sumner, Westinghouse Interim Chief Executive Officer. 'By partnering with Google Cloud to enhance our HiVE and bertha technology, and backed by 75 years of our proprietary nuclear data, we can accelerate the deployment of new AP1000 units while implementing powerful AI technologies that will optimize the construction and operations of nuclear power plants.'
'This partnership with Westinghouse combines Google Cloud's AI technologies and expertise with Westinghouse's century-long expertise in nuclear innovation to chart a new path towards a smarter and safer future,' said Kyle Jessen, Managing Director, Commercial Industries, Google Cloud. 'Artificial intelligence is not merely a tool; it can give companies a critical competitive advantage. Westinghouse is demonstrating what's possible.'
As part of this collaboration, Westinghouse and Google Cloud have successfully achieved a first-of-a-kind proof of concept leveraging Westinghouse's WNEXUS digital plant design platform and HiVE artificial intelligence enhanced by Google Cloud technologies, including Vertex AI, Gemini and BigQuery, to autonomously generate and optimize AP1000 modular construction work packages.
In September 2024, Westinghouse introduced HiVE and bertha, which are built from more than 75 years of proprietary data, knowledge and expertise. These nuclear-specific AI solutions are supported by dedicated nuclear engineers, and will optimize new nuclear deployment of our AP1000 reactor, AP300™ small modular reactors and eVinci ® microreactor technologies. Westinghouse's AI solutions are ready to support power plant operations by helping to deliver reliable and cost-effective electricity to homes and businesses.
Westinghouse Electric Company is shaping the future of carbon-free energy by providing safe, innovative nuclear and other clean power technologies and services globally. Westinghouse supplied the world's first commercial pressurized water reactor in 1957 and the company's technology is the basis for nearly one-half of the world's operating nuclear plants. Over 135 years of innovation makes Westinghouse the preferred partner for advanced technologies covering the complete nuclear energy life cycle.

Boomi Brings Sovereign Data Integration to Australia
Business Wire India Boomi™, the leader in AI-driven automation, today announced the local availability of Boomi Data Integration from within an Australian data centre, enabling local enterprises to move data faster, more securely, and in compliance with national regulations. The launch comes after Boomi acquired Rivery, a modern data integration provider. This underscores Boomi's strategic investment in local infrastructure and its commitment to solving Australia's most pressing data challenges. With a Sydney-based instance of Boomi Data Integration now live, Australian organisations can deploy log-based Change Data Capture (CDC) and near-real-time Extract, Load, and Transform (ELT) pipelines entirely onshore. That means sensitive data remains within national borders, latency is reduced, and there's clear alignment with local data sovereignty laws. 'A strong addition to Boomi's data platform alongside DataHub, Boomi Data Integration brings big data capabilities to Australian and New Zealanders, all within the same no-code/low-code experience Boomi users know and trust,' said Nikolai Blackie, Co-founder, Adaptiv, an Australasian data and integration consultancy and Boomi partner. The launch supports regulatory requirements under the Privacy Act 1988, the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs), and sector-specific frameworks including APRA CPS 234 and the My Health Records Act. Boomi's customers span highly regulated industries including financial services, government, education, and healthcare, all of which stand to benefit from improved compliance, confidence, and data agility. This latest development strengthens Boomi's unified platform strategy, which aims to bring integration, API management, data management, and AI readiness under a single layer of AI-driven intelligence. It also reduces reliance on disconnected point solutions, helping customers simplify their technology stacks and accelerate digital transformation — securely and at scale. 'AI agents, predictive models, and real-time analytics all demand one thing: trusted data, delivered quickly and securely,' said David Irecki, Chief Technology Officer for Asia Pacific and Japan at Boomi. 'But in Australia, compliance is just as critical as speed, especially when you start to consider sectors like finance, government, and healthcare.' 'With local deployment of Boomi Data Integration, we're removing any compliance barriers to AI-related to data sovereignty, while giving our partners and end-users the near-real-time data capabilities they need to innovate.'
