Anthropic buys $3.4 billion of Caterpillar gas generatorsMachine translation

AI introduction

FT reports that Anthropic bought 1.7 GW of Caterpillar gas generators, taking over earlier orders placed by OnePWR Solutions along with the engineering and construction work to install them. Because the orders predate a price surge, the engines are due to arrive over the next two years. xAI bought $2 billion of mobile gas turbines this year, while Alphabet acquired energy developer Intersect in late 2025.

《金融时报》:Anthropic 刚以 34 亿美元购入总发电能力为 1.7 吉瓦的卡特彼勒燃气发电机,这是已知人工智能实验室规模最大的电力设备采购。

它接手了圣安东尼奥供应商 OnePWR Solutions 在 2 年前下达、但后来无力筹资履行的订单。

Anthropic 原计划成为 OnePWR 的客户,但最终转而买下了这些发动机,以及安装它们所需的工程和施工服务。

由于这些订单是在价格飙升前下达的,发动机将在未来 2 年陆续交付,而无需加入如今已排到数年后的生产队列。

xAI 今年采取了类似做法,购入价值 20 亿美元的移动式燃气轮机;Alphabet 则在 2025 年底收购了能源开发商 Intersect。

Anthropic 已披露截至 2045 年近 9000 亿美元的计算资源采购承诺,主要通过合作伙伴以较高价格获取电力、芯片和土地。
