Oklo, Vistra share increase after nuclear power agreements with Meta

Oklo shares have soared after Meta announced a deal with the nuclear power supplier, which is also backed by OpenAI CEO Sam Altman.

In a statement on Friday, January 9, 2026, the Mark Zuckerberg-owned platform Meta announced its agreements with three nuclear power providers that include Vistra, TerraPower and Oklo.

The financial terms of the agreements were not disclosed.

According to CNBC, the deal is related to Meta’s Prometheus supercluster computing system being built in a data center in New Albany, Ohio.

These companies have attracted strong investor interest following the announcement, with Vistra shares rising 16 percent and Oklo rising 18 percent.

First announced in July 2025, Meta’s online computer system is expected to come online sometime in 2026.

Zuckerberg has described Prometheus as one of the keys to the development of the company’s advanced artificial intelligence efforts.

Following the agreements, the project is expected to add 6.6 gigawatts of power by 2035, which is more than the demand in New Hampshire.

Okla, Vistra or TerraPower have yet to officially announce their deal with the tech giant.
