Microsoft partners with UK nonprofit on software to help coal plants transition to nuclear power

Microsoft and Terra Praxis, a nonprofit headquartered in the U.K., have joined forces to develop a software application that will help existing coal plants determine the best avenue for decarbonization. “The global energy transition requires partnerships and technology innovation like this one led by Terra Praxis to repurpose coal-based power plants with carbon-free energy generation,” Darryl Willis, corporate vice president of Energy & Resources at Microsoft, said in a statement. “We look forward to our role in enabling Terra Praxis to accelerate this transformational solution economically, securely and at scale.”
