On Thursday (December 4) local time, data analytics company Palantir, Nvidia , and US utility company CenterPoint Energy announced that the three parties are jointly developing a new software platform to accelerate the construction of next-generation artificial intelligence (AI) data centers .
The software system, named "Chain Reaction," aims to help companies building AI data centers overcome challenges such as licensing, supply chain, and construction—data centers that can consume the equivalent of a small city's electricity.
Executives involved in the project stated that Chain Reaction will use AI tools to assist customers.
Founded in 1882 and headquartered in Houston, Texas, CenterPoint provides electricity and natural gas to customers in multiple states, including Indiana, Ohio, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, and Texas. Serve.
Chain Reaction will build on the collaboration announced last month between Palantir and NVIDIA , using AI to solve supply chain and logistics challenges for retailers like Lowe's and other businesses.
The management team involved in the project pointed out that the goals of this collaboration are much broader, as it attempts to integrate the supply chains and construction processes of different types of companies. For example, Nvidia and TSMC... They collaborate with chip manufacturing partners, while CenterPoint is responsible for securing permits and carrying out construction for grid upgrades.
All aspects must be coordinated and advanced on time for the data center project to be implemented smoothly.
Justin Boitano, NVIDIA's VP of Enterprise AI Products, said: "This is a very complex supply chain. As we build this rack-scale infrastructure, every ecosystem partner around the world is affected."
AI can help because it excels at analyzing data that may not be stored in standard enterprise software systems. Executives point out that email conversations between the purchasing department and suppliers may hint at potential delays, and AI can identify these signals and develop response plans.
Palantir’s Head of Energy Infrastructure, Tristan Gruska, said: “Delays from each party, whether energy companies, data center developers, data center operators, grid operators or power generation companies, will add up and there are various interdependencies between them.”
