Google Bets on Self-Powered AI Data Centers With Intersect
The Information reports that Google is accelerating its AI infrastructure by buying Intersect, a renewables and data-center developer, to secure large-scale, self-sufficient power for its data centers. Intersect’s model emphasizes owning and interconnecting wind/solar capacity with battery backups and on-site gas turbines, primarily in Texas, enabling faster, cheaper, and greener power for Google’s AI workloads while reducing reliance on slow, centralized grid expansion.
