This 10-year agreement represents a significant milestone for PROPWR, marking its first customer commitment and aligning with the Company’s mission to "Rethink The Grid."

Among its offerings, PowerBridge to partner with LandBridge, WaterBridge and other Five Point-backed companies on buildout of data centers and related infrastructure.

The private-equity firm is committing as much as $1 billion to the recently formed PowerBridge to support projects in the Permian Basin.

Now that the United States can anticipate a spectrum of opportunities to increase production under the Trump administration, operators must weigh the prospects of a lack of infrastructure, particularly electrical power infrastructure, in remote areas of the Permian Basin.

New Era Helium and Sharon AI's joint venture is pioneering a 250 MW net-zero energy data center in Ector County, Texas near Odessa in the Permian Basin. The project is leveraging natural gas and helium resources, with a focus on sustainable energy solutions and advanced computing infrastructure.

The University of Texas at Austin is launching a new research initiative to help Texas capitalize on the influx of data centers coming into the state without overloading the Texas power grid.

This strategic initiative supports the further advancement of Juvo’s robust, 10-gigawatt (GW) portfolio of data center projects strategically located across Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) and Southwest Power Pool (SPP).

Vistra Corp., a Texas-based company, has recently agreed to acquire seven natural gas power plants for $1.9 billion from Lotus Infrastructure Partners, aiming to meet the growing energy needs driven by artificial intelligence.

Crusoe has raised the second phase of its $15 billion joint venture to fund a 1.2GW AI data center campus in Abilene, Texas.

Really good tour of Stargate’s new Abilene project. Super impressive.

Companies withdraw state loan applications for gas-powered plants.

By the end of 2026, East Daley Analytics forecasts nearly 5.2 billion cubic feet per day of additional gas processing capacity across the Permian compared to 2024.

A new study from S&P Global Commodity Insights found expectations of the coming data center-driven demand boom are bolstering U.S. gas company valuations.

Can bitcoin mining be the partner that fixes that?

Elon Musk said Tuesday that artificial intelligence development could run into power generation problems by the middle of next year, as the technology industry builds increasingly large data centers.

Texas is the fastest-growing consumer of electricity in the nation, according to the Energy Information Administration. In 2024, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT)—which manages about 90 percent of the state's grid—said electricity demands could nearly double by 2030 as data centers and cryptocurrency grow and as oil operations in the Permian Basin begin to run on electricity instead of diesel.

The key is distributed energy, tapping into the dormant on-site energy production capacity within the rapidly expanding network of data centers across the country.

Data centers with behind-the-meter (BTM) generation and a commitment to demand response or interruptible tariffs can actually help reduce stress on the grid and lower energy costs for everyone.

Data centers can’t wait for appropriate outside energy solutions, especially when customer demand is so high. There is a solution to the bottleneck: rethinking a power strategy that incorporates more sustainable and self-sufficient options, like creating a microgrid, building strategically, and increasing operational efficiencies.

How modular data centers and on-site energy solutions are changing the game.

An interesting look at energy footprints by data center types.

Data-center electricity deals are purpose-built to deliver round-the-clock power at predictable cost while giving utilities revenue certainty and, increasingly, supporting renewable-energy goals. Four contract pillars dominate.

In this episode, Dave talks about natural gas power plants in Ohio, Google’s 1 MW racks, and what it all means for the U.S. energy market.

Data Center Richness talks with Tyler Norris, whose recent research paper titled “Rethinking Load Growth” has made waves in the energy sector, advancing new strategies for managing growth on America’s power grid.

Upon completion, the permanent substation will provide long-term power for the Gardendale pumping station, reinforcing the region’s energy infrastructure and enabling efficient NGL delivery through the BANGL pipeline system.

One of the cornerstones of the United States strategy for Bitcoin mining, according to Eric Trump, is the use of inexpensive electricity. He stated that making something for only a fraction of what people are ready to spend on it while using the most affordable forms of energy available is a revolutionary idea. The entity plans to capitalize on extra energy produced from fossil fuels that is now available in the United States.

Sangha Renewables breaks ground on a West Texas facility and secures $14M in funding to reshape power monetization.

Nebraska passes LB 526 to regulate crypto mining operations using over 1MW. Final call now rests with the Governor.

He explained that thanks to the rise of AI and big cloud computing needs, power infrastructure is more critical than ever — and Bitcoin miners like Bitdeer are right in the middle of that transition. “We happen to have a lot of power at the right time,” he noted, making miners part of the new energy conversation.

Bitcoin mining is becoming an unexpected ally in the green transition. The technology is showing potential as a grid stabilizer in a vulnerable energy system.
