Why it matters

The strategic read

Confirms Nebius is stacking multiple gigawatt-class U.S. AI-factory campuses, not just one Missouri flagship. A 1.2 GW Pennsylvania site would put NBIS directly into the PJM power-interconnection bottleneck and expands the map of AI-cloud capacity buildouts tied to owned infrastructure.
