Brookfield is the asset manager the Department of Energy named on July 29, 2026 to lease the Paducah uranium-enrichment site and develop a 1.8-gigawatt AI computing campus there, the heart of a $100 billion plan in which NextEra Energy builds the power. With more than $1 trillion under management, it is one of the world's largest infrastructure investors, and its listed shares (BAM) are how public markets price its end of the Paducah pledge.
