Venture Global Inks Deals with GE Vernova, Baker Hughes for Power Expansion

The agreements could support up to 10 gigawatts of compute capacity by 2034, while keeping the gas-fired units off the public grid.

  • On Thursday, Venture Global announced agreements with GE Vernova and Baker Hughes to supply up to 16 new 720 MW power-island units, expanding its off-grid 'Island-Mode' network to support AI data centers and LNG operations.
  • Venture Global is leveraging its existing 4.5 GW of modular, gas-fired generation that operates entirely behind-the-meter, independent of public power grids; the company has spent 15 years building this private industrial electric grid infrastructure.
  • The agreements enable a phased expansion to reach up to 10 GW of compute capacity by 2034, with Venture Global expecting to place its first power island order by the end of 2026, subject to customer commitments.
  • Venture Global plans to file its first permit applications this week to initiate regulatory review. The company emphasized that new AI infrastructure is separate from and complementary to its core LNG operations and will not affect existing sales commitments.
  • By providing dedicated on-site power generation, Venture Global aims to address AI infrastructure chokepoints while strengthening America's critical energy infrastructure without adding demand to public electric grids or increasing costs for local consumers.
