Cipher Digital has begun developing lateral natural gas pipelines designed to unlock up to 2.5 GW of new on-site power generation for high-performance computing data centres across multiple US sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The infrastructure will connect Cipher facilities with nearby natural gas supplies, supporting a bring-your-own-generation strategy intended to accelerate access to electricity as AI and HPC operators compete for increasingly constrained grid capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cipher said it would work with power providers to develop and operate generation infrastructure connected to the pipelines. The company expects the projects to make additional power available before the end of 2027, potentially expanding the amount of industrial-scale data centre capacity it can lease to HPC tenants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The move reflects a growing focus among data centre developers on securing dedicated power sources as large AI workloads place greater pressure on utility grids. Cipher believes the proximity of its sites to significant natural gas resources could provide an advantage as it expands its leasing portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tyler Page, CEO, Cipher Digital, said: \u201cSecuring and delivering power is the foundation of everything we do and bringing our own electricity generation allows us to unlock significant new capacity quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Page said development of the lateral pipelines represented a decisive step towards adding up to 2.5 GW of power to Cipher\u2019s portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cipher also plans to seek grid connections for the generation capacity. The company said this could enable the projects to contribute to grid stability in communities where it develops data centres while supporting further HPC infrastructure expansion over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
