Japan's SoftBank plans to build a massive AI data center in Ohio, USA, powered by a gas-fired power plant

The company expects the total cost of the data center, including internal chips and equipment, to be between 30 billions and 40 billions, with a power demand capacity reaching 10 gigawatts (GW). If completed, this natural gas project will become the largest of its kind in the United States, with a power supply capacity equivalent to nine nuclear reactors. A total of 9.2 gigawatts of turbines will be distributed and installed in the region. It is worth noting that Ohio is home to a former uranium enrichment facility under the U.S. Department of Energy.
