""As artificial intelligence and digital technologies continue to reshape our world, it is crucial that we build the necessary infrastructure responsibly. This is the mission we have set ourselves," Looney said in a statement, touting Prometheus as being at the "forefront of next-generation data center development.""
"Prometheus is focused on speed of construction and cleaner energy, utilizing a combination of behind-the-meter natural gas and battery storage to get projects completed and then utilize more wind, solar, and even advanced nuclear power."
Bernard Looney has taken over as CEO of Prometheus Hyperscale, focusing on data center projects in Wyoming and Texas. His leadership follows a controversial resignation from BP amid a probe into personal relationships. Prometheus aims to develop two major data centers with a capacity of 2.5 gigawatts, costing over $30 billion. The company emphasizes speed, cleaner energy, and innovative cooling technology. Looney highlights the importance of responsible infrastructure development in the AI age, with Prometheus backed by In-Q-Tel, the CIA's venture capital fund.
