US data center firm Tecfusionshas has signed an AI infrastructure commitment with TensorWave.
The agreement will see TensorWave lease 1GW of AI capacity across TECfusion's data center portfolio.
“This collaboration with TensorWave marks a watershed moment in the AI infrastructure landscape,” said Shawn Novak, chief revenue officer of Tecfusions. "Tecfusions’ Clarksville data center, already home to one of the world’s largest GPU clusters, is a testament to Tecfusions’ industry-leading infrastructure for the most demanding AI applications and showcases our capability to handle TensorWave’s extensive capacity requirements.”
Tecfusions will initiate the deployment in phases, with a large portion of the 1GW due to be available by early 2025.
Tecfusion will utilize its on-site microgrid generation, powered primarily by natural gas, to maintain a stable supply of energy and avoid price shocks that could lead to high energy costs. It operates a 200MW onsite microgrid at its New Kensington data center in Pennsylvania and a 220MW microgrid at its Clarksville data center in Virginia.
The partnership follows the close of TensorWaves's SAFE (simple agreements for future equity) funding round, which raised $43 million.
The company was founded in 2023 and is headquartered in Las Vegas. It provides companies with access to AI compute availability via AMD Instinct GPUs.
Darrick Horton, CEO of TensorWave, described the deal as a “game changer” for the company, stating: “Tecfusions' ability to bring massive AI-ready capacity online in months rather than years significantly accelerates our time to market to support our customers. This partnership is crucial for maintaining our competitive edge in the fast-paced AI sector.”
Tecfusions currently has three operational data centers in Arizona, Virginia, and Pennsylvania. In September, it announced the completion of its third data hall at its Clarksville facility in Virginia, bringing the total capacity of the data center to 34.5MW.
Construction for a fourth data hall (D-Hall) is set to begin this month, adding another 13.5MW to the facility by the end of the year.
