Liberty Energy与PowerBridge成立合资公司支持西德州2GW数据中心供电园区

July 22, 2026

DENVER & HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Liberty Energy Inc. (NYSE: LBRT) (“Liberty”) and PowerBridge LLC (“PowerBridge”) today announced the formation of a strategic joint venture (“JV”) that leverages PowerBridge’s digital campus development assets and operating platform with the integrated power generation, energy management, and operational capabilities of Liberty Power Innovations (“LPI”), a Liberty Energy company. The JV’s current scope is expected to support a planned 2 gigawatt (“GW”) powered data center campus in West Texas while establishing a platform to pursue future opportunities across PowerBridge’s broader portfolio of gigawatt-scale powered campus developments serving hyperscale, artificial intelligence, and other large load customers.

PowerBridge and LPI bring together complementary capabilities to serve the accelerating demand for digital infrastructure and new power generation assets. PowerBridge’s digital campus development strategy integrates critical site infrastructure through pad-ready powered campuses and a regional fiber conduit network designed to support large-load deployments. LPI will design, develop and operate scalable, modular power generation architecture, with power quality management and grid optimization solutions. Together, the companies offer a repeatable execution model designed to accelerate deployment timelines and provide customers with greater certainty around both site infrastructure and power supply.

The JV’s current scope is focused on PowerBridge’s Alpha Digital Campus, a planned 2 GW powered campus in West Texas. The initial phase of campus development is expected to include more than 300 megawatts (“MW”) of generation capacity, with the potential for additional phases over time. The first power delivery date is anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2027 and is expected to continue deployment through the first half of 2028. The Alpha Digital Campus is being developed with a focus on creating long-term community value through thoughtful engagement, workforce opportunity, and responsible resource stewardship.

“We are delighted to partner with Liberty as we execute our powered campuses at gigawatt scale,” commented Alex Hernandez, Founder & Chief Executive Officer of PowerBridge. “PowerBridge was founded on the premise of driving and solving the accelerating convergence between energy and digital infrastructure. Our mission is to serve our digital infrastructure customers with an integrated powered campus solution while building new power generation assets that strengthen grid reliability. By aligning our powered campus development assets with Liberty’s comprehensive power services and operational expertise, we are creating a model that can be scaled across future gigawatt scale powered data center campuses in West Texas.”

“The most sophisticated customers are increasingly seeking partners that can simplify the delivery of large-scale digital infrastructure projects,” commented Ron Gusek, Chief Executive Officer of Liberty Energy. “As power availability becomes a defining factor in data center development, customers need integrated solutions that align power generation, energy management, and campus infrastructure planning from the outset. With PowerBridge, we are helping customers secure reliable power faster and more efficiently, supporting the accelerating growth of AI and digital infrastructure.”

The JV is structured to align ownership, capital investment, and operational responsibilities across both power generation and campus development and is subject to finalizing and executing additional commercial agreements, other ancillary agreements and required regulatory approvals.
