Jericho Energy Ventures (JROOF) treibt sein AI-Modulares Rechenzentrum-Projekt in Oklahoma voran und nutzt dabei seine strategische Lage entlang einer wichtigen US-Faseroptikroute. Das Unternehmen hat mit AT&T zusammengearbeitet, um an seinem ersten Standort eine Mindestverbindung von 10Gbps Glasfaser zu realisieren, mit der Möglichkeit, auf über 100Gbps zu skalieren. Laut einem IEA-Bericht vom April 2025 werden AI-Rechenzentren bis 2030 voraussichtlich die Hälfte des Wachstums des US-Strombedarfs ausmachen und damit den kombinierten Energieverbrauch mehrerer energieintensiver Branchen übersteigen.
Die Wettbewerbsvorteile des Unternehmens umfassen strategisch positionierte, glasfaserverbundene Infrastruktur und Zugang zu kostengünstigem Erdgas, was es ermöglicht, skalierbare Hochleistungs-Lösungen für die wachsenden AI- und Energiesektoren anzubieten. Das modulare Design ihrer Rechenzentren erleichtert eine schnelle Implementierung und Erweiterung, um den sich entwickelnden Anforderungen von AI-Arbeitslasten gerecht zu werden.
