Google parent Alphabet on Monday announced it will acquire Intersect, a data center and energy infrastructure company, for $4.75 billion in cash in addition to the assumption of debt.
Alphabet said Intersect’s operations will remain independent, but that the acquisition will help bring more data center and generation capacity online faster.
“Intersect will help us expand capacity, operate more nimbly in building new power generation in lockstep with new data center load, and reimagine energy solutions to drive US innovation and leadership,” Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google and Alphabet, said in a statement.

Interesting move.
I imagine big tech companies might start eating up HV consulting firms left and right due to the high demand.
Tells me capacity is constrained. Too much demand from Gemini 3.0
Which I kinda hoped wasn’t true for Google.
little 5 billion AI bet flick.
Keep the change you filthy animal. Did they show home alone yet?
Sounds smart. Google has such a huge advantage over every other player with their Ironwood TPUs.
They are rumored to be twice as efficient as the best from Nvidia, Blackwell.
Which just makes sense. Google uses a more advance fabrication node with TSMC compared to Nvidia, 3nm versus Nvidia 4nm.
But then they are also purpose built so do not have all the extra cr*p that is unnecessary for AI work.
