"These technologies, along with OpenUSD, provide AtkinsRéalis with a framework to design and optimise integrated infrastructure systems in a 3D digital twin before building in the real world," AtkinsRéalis said.
AtkinsRéalis said it is working with Nvidia on the planning, design, and delivery of AI‑ready facilities that will leverage AtkinsRéalis's expertise in delivering nuclear power infrastructure and technology, energy systems, and complex project execution. This initiative will assess how AtkinsRéalis can support developers with deploying AI infrastructure by selectively integrating Nvidiatechnologies into its delivery processes.
"Nuclear power is emerging as a leading low-carbon baseload for AI factories," AtkinsRéalis noted. "As the Original Equipment Manufacturer and exclusive license holder of CANDU technology, AtkinsRéalis is well-positioned to work alongside Nvidia's Omniverse DSX Blueprint for next-generation hubs supporting dedicated AI computing workloads."
Under its collaboration with Nvidia, AtkinsRéalis will examine how standardised nuclear power solutions within its CANDU portfolio could be integrated with large-scale AI data centre requirements. Nvidia will contribute strategic leadership in computing, networking, and AI, including digital twin and high-fidelity simulation tools that could help modernise nuclear delivery and support licensing pathways.
Nvidia's Omniverse, Agentic AI, and large language and visual language model technologies can streamline engineering workflows, enhance collaboration, accelerate construction schedules, and improve safety and performance outcomes across nuclear, power, and data centre programmes.
AtkinsRéalis will also explore how its capabilities in power distribution, cooling systems, resilience, modular engineering and construction efficiency can support the deployment of Nvidia DSX-based AI infrastructure.
"AtkinsRéalis brings deep engineering and delivery expertise across complex infrastructure and a 70-year legacy of excellence in the nuclear industry," said AtkinsRéalis President and CEO Ian Edwards. "This collaboration enables us to leverage these strengths in energy, infrastructure and complex project delivery to complement Nvidia's leadership in accelerated computing to help power critical AI data centres."
"Energy is essential to the AI industrial revolution," said Vladimir Troy, Vice President of AI Infrastructure at Nvidia. "Pairing AtkinsRéalis's deep engineering and nuclear expertise with the Nvidia DSX Blueprint can help scale the deployment of efficient next-generation AI factories with accelerated computing and digital twins."
