Expert Statements
Mike Sabel, CEO of Venture Global
“Over the last decade, Venture Global has successfully built complex energy infrastructure, including one of the world’s largest private industrial electric grids that supports our core LNG export business. Our power generation platform is not reliant on the grid and reliably runs completely behind-the-meter making this new opportunity a natural extension of what we are experienced and proven to do safely, reliably, and at-scale.”
Mike Sabel, CEO of Venture Global
“These new agreements outline a phased, disciplined expansion to make reliable, large-scale power capacity available for new compute as and when we elect. By providing Island-Mode power generation, gas supply, closed-loop water systems, thousands of acres of land, data centers, and other necessary infrastructure, Venture Global is creating a vertically integrated AI utility that could solve for the many chokepoints associated with the AI buildout. This advances Venture Global’s broader strategy of strengthening America’s critical energy infrastructure and addressing one of the most important infrastructure challenges facing our nation today.”
