Rethink Power

The Public Grid Wasn’t

Designed for AI.

We’re Building a Private One.

America's AI future needs gigawatt-scale power — not in years, but now. Fermi America's 11GW private power grid is the answer: permitted, behind-the-meter energy at the speed and scale of American ambition.

ANSWERING THE CALL

America is in an AI arms race

with China — and 

It All Comes Down to Power

America’s leading AI companies have innovated faster than the public grid can keep pace — and the gap is widening fast. Due to no fault of their own, grid interconnection queues stretch 3–7 years. Utility capacity has risen over 1,038% in data center corridors, and there is a projected U.S. shortfall of +45GW. Utility bills have surged by more than 20%, and Americans are rightfully frustrated.

Washington DC just made it official: if you’re building AI at scale, you must bring your own power. 

Good thing Fermi is already building it.

Welcome to Project Matador, the world’s largest private HyperGrid™ campus — ~6 of 11 gigawatts already permitted, behind-the-meter power on 7,570 acres in the Texas Panhandle with ~2GW of power generation assets secured and shipping to campus, and the first phase of construction already complete. Built on clean natural gas, behind-the-meter grid power, solar, battery, and advanced nuclear power. Fully redundant. Backed by $700M+ in committed financing from MUFG and other leading investors, delivering real power in 2026.

“The Chinese are building 33 nuclear reactors today. America has none. We’re behind - and it’s all hands on deck. We need to be doing everything in our power to win this race, because this is the race that really matters.

So at Fermi America, we’re really not interested in building the second largest advanced energy and intelligence campus in the world, we’re gonna build the largest. And Texas has the expertise, the can-do spirit, and the resources to make this a reality.”

Reserve Your Gigawatt.
Deploy in Months. Not Years.

Gigawatt-scale, behind-the-meter power. No interconnection queue. No ratepayer exposure. On your timeline.

AI’s New Power Reality

DC Declared – Bring
Your Own Power.
Fermi Replied, Done.

Washington’s Ratepayer Protection Pledge. New York’s grid reform. Electric bills up 20%+ nationwide. The message from legislators is clear: AI companies must continue leading global innovation,  but without burdening the grid — or the Americans who pay for it.

While others scramble to respond, Fermi has been building private power for almost a year – permitted, financed, and with the first phase of construction completed. The BYOP mandate for private energy grids has been our business model since day one.
