In this episode, Raymond Hawkins, Chief Revenue Officer at Compass Datacenters, sits down with Matt Loszak, co-founder and CEO of Aalo Atomics. Matt Loszak shares his personal journey from growing up with severe asthma in Ontario - an experience that inspired his fascination with nuclear energy after coal plant closures led to both cleaner air and the end of his symptoms. His career spans from nuclear engineering studies to successful tech entrepreneurship, and eventually back to his roots in the energy sector with Aalo Atomics. The discussion explores the current and future challenges of powering rapidly scaling data centers, focusing on the unprecedented demand for clean, scalable electricity. Topics include the limitations of the current grid, the viability of modular and “extra modular” reactor technologies, and the promise of vertically integrated nuclear solutions. Matt Loszak offers deep insights into Aalo’s business model, the economics of on-site power generation, and the transformative potential of fast, factory-built nuclear power for the data center industry.
