With artificial intelligence (AI) emerging as one of the most consequential technologies for both the energy sector and global economy, Canada and its G7 partners are investing to support future competitiveness and productivity while considering energy security, reliability and affordability. G7 partners recognize that AI can be harnessed to promote energy innovation and help strengthen the resilience and reliability of energy systems. However, its adoption places growing pressure on energy grids and could negatively affect energy security.

In the face of heightened global challenges and technological competition, we recognize that cooperation among G7 partners, trusted partners, industry, and international partners, to address the energy challenges of AI and harness the innovative potential of AI, is key to the success of our economies' digital transition, as well as broader energy, economic and national security imperatives. We have a shared ambition that AI data centers be reliably and cost-effectively powered through the adoption of technical and market-based solutions, such as optimizing the resource management and demand-side response related to the energy requirements of AI and data centres, in a manner consistent with domestic priorities and applicable international commitments.

Those countries that opt to use nuclear energy, or to support its use, are committed to advancing research, development, and deployment of innovative nuclear technologies, including small modular reactors and advanced reactors. This includes sharing national best practices, facilitating access to financing tools, promoting clear, safe and efficient licensing approaches, and reinforcing coordination on commercial projects among G7 members and with partner countries. This also includes recognition of nuclear energy as a non-emitting baseload energy source consistent with national priorities and international commitments.
