OpenAI and Anthropic reportedly seek 20-30 MW deployments for inference
CNBC reports both labs are looking for smaller 20 to 30 MW deployments in the US, UK, and Nordics to serve inference, alongside their gigawatt-scale training campuses.
Why it matters
Inference capacity is dispersing closer to users, which opens the market to mid-sized sites that can deliver power quickly.
