Google Backs Anthropic Texas Data Center

Google is nearing a multibillion-dollar deal to finance and power Anthropic's new Texas data center, with backing expected to be finalized in the coming weeks and financing possibly exceeding $5 billion. The 2,800-acre campus aims to deliver about 500 megawatts by early 2026, with potential expansion to 7.7 gigawatts; Alphabet's support should lower borrowing costs and attract bank lenders.
