- Nvidia secures Ohio land and power as demand for AI computing capacity grows
Nvidia (NVDA) has committed $1.5 billion to SB Energy while securing up to 8 gigawatts of computing capacity in Ohio. The agreement expands Nvidia’s role in building power and data center infrastructure. Meanwhile, NVDA shares traded at $225.62 after early gains followed a decline from above $226.50.
Nvidia Expands Ohio Infrastructure
Nvidia will invest $1.5 billion in SB Energy, which SoftBank backs and supports large infrastructure projects. The agreement gives Nvidia access to up to 8 gigawatts of computing capacity at an Ohio campus. SB Energy is developing the campus for OpenAI, linking power and data center development.
Nvidia has secured land and power at Ohio’s PORTS-Pike Technology Campus for its planned AI data center. The facility will use Nvidia graphics processors and networking equipment, with initial capacity reaching 4.25 gigawatts. The project adds a site to Nvidia’s infrastructure plans.
SB Energy and SoftBank plan to build at least 10 gigawatts of new power generation capacity. Additionally, the companies plan to invest $4.2 billion in Ohio grid infrastructure for data centers. The planned spending will support power needs across computing projects.
Nvidia Stock Moves After Ohio Deal
NVDA opened near $226 and initially traded above $226.50 before sellers pushed the price lower. The stock later moved toward $225.16, which marked an early session level. However, NVDA recovered modestly and reached $225.62 during the session.
A move above $226.50 would return the stock toward its earlier trading range after the opening decline. Meanwhile, a break below $225.16 could bring the $224.50 area into focus. The session showed sharp movement around the open before trading narrowed.
Nvidia’s Ohio project links chip supply, power generation, and data center construction within one plan. Major technology companies continue expanding facilities to support computing systems requiring substantial electricity. Nvidia’s investment also secures access to future computing capacity at the Ohio campus.
SB Energy Builds Power and Data Center Capacity
SB Energy develops large power and data center projects, while SoftBank supports the company. The company launched in 2019 and has developed several campuses for rising demand from AI workloads. Its Ohio plans combine new power generation with grid upgrades and data center development.
OpenAI also backs SB Energy, while the Ohio campus will provide computing capacity for OpenAI’s infrastructure needs. Nvidia will supply graphics processors and networking equipment for the planned facility. The project combines Nvidia hardware with power and data center infrastructure.
Nvidia’s $1.5 billion commitment adds financing to SB Energy’s Ohio expansion while securing future computing capacity. The agreement covers up to 8 gigawatts, while Nvidia’s initial facility targets 4.25 gigawatts. The figures show the scale of infrastructure planned around Nvidia’s computing business.
