TLDR
Nikkei Asia reports SoftBank is moving beyond startup bets into power plants and data centers through SB Energy. The company is among the developers of a planned $33 billion natural gas power complex in Ohio intended to supply a major data center campus. The project still needs regulatory approvals, and SB Energy’s Nasdaq listing has been delayed. Of its 8.8 gigawatts of contracted data center capacity, 0.8 gigawatts is under construction and none is operational.
