NextEra Energy Inc. is offering large amounts of power for sale from its nuclear plants in Wisconsin and New Hampshire, as major technology companies race to secure nuclear energy for artificial-intelligence data centers.

The company owns the Point Beach power plant in Wisconsin and the Seabrook Station plant in New Hampshire, both outside regulated utility frameworks, allowing the electricity to be sold to the highest bidder.
