Nvidia weighs playing the cosigner for Nscale’s AI data center in West Virginia
Overview
Nvidia is discussing a residual value guarantee backing billions in debt for Nscale’s planned Anthropic data center in West Virginia, The Information reported Thursday and Bloomberg corroborated. Nvidia would step in on a construction default, take over the site, and help find a buyer and tenant.
Key facts
- The Anthropic contract covers the first building and Vera Rubin chips; a second building deal is also being discussed.
- Nscale seeks an IPO amid delivery doubts, with about 25,000 advanced AI chips running in August against nearly 500,000 planned.
- September state certification followed repeated construction runoff floods; Microsoft exited a planned England site this month after power slipped into the 2030s.
Key figures
- $44.6 billion — Anthropic contract value for the project’s first building alone
- up to $35 billion — Upper valuation Nscale is seeking in its IPO
- 460-megawatt — Capacity of the first building in the Anthropic contract
