CEPU Signs MoU to Help Power OpenAI-Backed Argentine Data Center

Central Puerto SA, a leading power company in Argentina, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to provide power support for a proposed $25 billion data center project in the country. The data center is backed by OpenAI, a prominent artificial intelligence research company. The MoU aims to establish a collaboration between Central Puerto and the unnamed company behind the data center project. This partnership will focus on ensuring a reliable and sustainable power supply to the data center, which is planned to be one of the largest of its kind in Argentina. The project is expected to contribute significantly to the country's economic development and technological advancement, as it will create job opportunities and boost the local infrastructure. The data center's operations will also rely on Central Puerto's expertise in power generation and distribution to meet the high energy demands of such a large-scale facility. The agreement represents a significant step forward in Argentina's efforts to attract major tech investments and position itself as a hub for innovation and data infrastructure in the region.
