NVIDIA is in talks to invest as much as $3 billion in SB Energy, a SoftBank Group subsidiary developing a massive planned Ohio data center project for OpenAI, the Information reported on Saturday, citing people familiar with the discussions.
The proposed investment is part of Nvidia’s talks with OpenAI and SB Energy on providing around $100 billion in credit support for the planned Ohio data center campus, the report said.
Nvidia has discussed investing half of the $3 billion when the Ohio project deal is signed and the other half as part of SB Energy’s planned initial public offering, according to the Information.
Reuters could not immediately verify the report. Nvidia and SB Energy did not immediately respond to requests for comment outside regular business hours.
SB Energy is aiming to go public as soon as next month and could raise at least $5 billion in the initial public offering (IPO), the report added.
The Wall Street Journal on Friday reported that Nvidia has revised its plans to support a proposed OpenAI data center project in Ohio and is now expected to initially guarantee less than $120 billion, down from the $250 billion previously discussed.
