US company Anthropic at the end of September signed a $3.4bn deal to supply gas generators with a total capacity of 1.7 GW to power its data centres. This was reported by the Financial Times.
Terms of the agreement with OnePWR Solutions
At the end of September Anthropic acquired from the Texas company OnePWR Solutions the rights to supply high-capacity gas generators at a total cost of $3.4bn. The deal also provides access to the engineering and construction resources required to install the equipment.
Anthropic did not purchase OnePWR Solutions itself, and the company’s employees did not transfer to the AI developer. Both companies declined to comment on the transaction.
Delivery schedule and energy-equipment market context
According to a source, OnePWR ordered the generators from US manufacturer Caterpillar two years ago and needed additional financing to complete the purchase, so Anthropic decided to take over the order. Some units are expected to be available shortly, with the remainder due over the next two years.
The deal reflects intensifying competition for energy equipment: other technology companies have also been buying generators or energy assets. Notably, xAI purchased mobile gas turbines worth $2bn in early 2026, and at the end of 2025 Alphabet acquired the energy company Intersect.
