Chevron, Engine No. 1 and GE Vernova team up on powering US data centers, with AI in focus

Energy company Chevron is partnering with Engine No. 1 and GE Vernova to create natural gas power plants in the United States that will be linked to data centers in order to support increased demand for electricity at these centers, particularly for the development of artificial intelligence. Last week President Donald Trump signed an executive order on AI that will revoke past government policies his order says “act as barriers to American AI innovation.” He also talked up a joint venture investing up to $500 billion for infrastructure tied to AI by a new partnership formed by OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank. 1 and GE Vernova said Tuesday that their first projects, called “power foundries,” are expected to leverage seven American made GE Vernova 7HA natural gas turbines. By using abundant domestic natural gas to generate electricity directly connected to data centers, we can secure AI leadership, drive productivity gains across our economy and restore America’s standing as an industrial superpower,” Chris James, founder and chief investment officer of investment firm Engine No.
