NextEra Energy has partnered with Google Cloud to develop several gigawatt-scale data center campuses and the associated generation and capacity needed to power them. The companies are currently developing the first three campuses and are collaborating to identify additional locations and expansion plans.
"Our partnership with Google exemplifies this very singular moment when energy and technology are becoming inextricably intertwined," said NextEra Energy chairman and CEO John Ketchum. "Together, we intend to build data center capacity and energy infrastructure at scale, advance cutting-edge technology, and reimagine how energy companies operate. By combining NextEra Energy's unmatched skills as America's leading energy infrastructure builder and operator, with Google's world-class technology expertise, we will help transform the energy sector."
The partnership will also provide access to Google's latest time-series open source forecasting model (TimesFM 2.5), weather forecasting model (WeatherNext 2), and security-constrained power flow modeling.
