“And it gives us one potential path to achieve the six gigawatts, the midpoint of our development expectations, of new gas-fired generation build through 2032.”

In context

“rt their needs. Our breadth and depth allow us to have a multi-year, multi-gigawatt, multi-technology discussion with hyperscalers. These data center hub opportunities, as we call them, represent a powerful channel to originate large generation projects with expansion opportunities where we can grow alongside our hyperscaler partner rather than building on a project-by-project basis. As we discussed in December, our data center hub strategy is all part of our new 15 by 35 origination channel and goal for Energy Resources to place in service 15 gigawatts of new generation for data center hubs by 2035. This dedicated work stream to power data center hubs is expected to help us achieve our existing development expectations through a mix of new renewables, battery storage, and gas generation. And it gives us one potential path to achieve the six gigawatts, the midpoint of our development expectations, of new gas-fired generation build through 2032. We currently have 20 potential hubs we are discussing with the market. We expect that number to rise to 40 by year-end. We won't convert every single hub, but I'll be disappointed if we don't double our goal and deliver at least 30 gigawatts through this channel by 2035. To get there, Energy Resources is laser-focused on positioning the company to where we see the large load market going, and that's to bring your own generation or BYOG. And it makes sense given affordability concerns across the U.S. Hyperscalers can solve that problem by bringing and paying for their own power generation infrastructure. In fact, this issue took center stage earlier this month when the White House and a bipartisan group of Mid-Atlantic governors came forward with the framework of a potential solution to ad”
