Nvidia is set to provide up to $105 billion in financing for a new artificial intelligence data Centres for OpenAI in Ohio.
The funding will support an initial 4.25 gigawatts of computing capacity, with an option to add another 3.75 gigawatts. The capacity is expected to be phased in throughout 2028.
SB Energy will develop and operate the data center at the PORTS-Pike Technology Campus in Pike City, Ohio, through a 20 year lease agreement with OpenAI.
The frontier lab has an ownership stake in SB Energy, and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman was an early investor in the company.
“We are building long-term infrastructure for Nvidia’s computing needs so OpenAI can deploy highly productive AI systems that can be continuously upgraded with each new generation, delivering more intelligence and improved economics,” said Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang in a statement.
