Energy Vault signs 1.25GW power deal for Texas data center

On 7 August, Energy Vault signed a major agreement to deliver 1.25 GW of power infrastructure for an artificial intelligence data center in Texas, US 🚀

If you follow tech news, you know that running modern AI models requires staggering amounts of electricity. This project bypasses traditional power lines to deliver energy straight to the servers.

📍 The agreement will generate between $500 and $600 million in revenue during late 2026 and 2027.
📍 The setup includes battery storage systems, power conversion units, and dedicated control software.
📍 First deployments will launch within four to twelve months.
📍 Chief executive Robert Piconi called it the company's largest single contract to date.

By comparison, utility provider Evergy manages 3 GW of signed large-scale loads with a 5-GW generation pipeline, showing just how fast the entire energy market is expanding to keep up.

Power is the true bottleneck of the AI boom.
