公司披露显示,英伟达将向 SB Energy 投资 15 亿美元。这家公司与软银和 OpenAI 有关联,也是 OpenAI 在美国俄亥俄州大型数据中心项目的开发方。随着交易推进,英伟达在该项目中的角色已从设备供应延伸到融资支持。

锁定 OpenAI 项目供应

公告显示,英伟达将成为 OpenAI 位于俄亥俄州辛辛那提附近 Ports-Pike 数据中心的独家算力基础设施供应商。根据提交给美国证券交易委员会的文件,英伟达还将提供最高 1050 亿美元信贷,帮助项目建设。

该数据中心初始规模为 4.25 吉瓦,后续可扩展至 8 吉瓦。按这一体量计算,项目将持续带动高性能计算设备、服务器和配套基础设施需求。

软银与 OpenAI 已入股

SB Energy 现有投资方包括软银和 OpenAI。报道提到,软银此前曾持有价值 58 亿美元的英伟达股票,并在去年 11 月出售,以支持其他 AI 投资安排。

从结构上看,英伟达此次不仅提供股权投资,还通过独家供应和大额信贷更深度参与项目建设。这也意味着其希望在超大规模 AI 数据中心项目中锁定更长期的业务位置。

项目配套 9.2 吉瓦电厂

SB Energy 还计划在项目所在地建设一座 9.2 吉瓦的天然气发电厂,为数据中心供电。该地块归美国能源部所有,历史上曾用于美国核武库和海军潜艇相关的铀浓缩活动。

这座发电厂预计耗资 330 亿美元。报道援引数据称,天然气电厂建设成本过去两年已上涨 66%。随着类似项目陆续投运,美国部分地区未来还可能面临更激烈的天然气需求竞争。

  • 英伟达投资额为 15 亿美元
  • 最高信贷支持为 1050 亿美元
  • 数据中心可由 4.25 吉瓦扩至 8 吉瓦

补充信息:英伟达此次交易同时覆盖股权、供货与信贷三部分,显示 AI 基础设施竞争已从芯片采购延伸至电力、融资和整站建设能力。
