Google, Nvidia, Anthropic Coalition Targets 100 GW of Grid Capacity for Data Centers

It is a coalition aiming to identify and secure roughly 100 GW of grid capacity to support new data centers built for growing AI workloads.

Because it approaches the total generating capacity of mid-sized countries, meaning data center power demand is now a national-scale infrastructure issue, not just a corporate one.

Gulf states are racing to build large data centers. A global shift toward pairing data centers with clean power could give the region an edge if it invests in grids and renewables.

The fastest path is partnerships with power and telecom operators, and ensuring new data center projects are tied to long-term power contracts.
