Energy

Power where it is produced

The fastest way to power AI is to go where the energy already is. We generate on site, behind the meter, from sources that can be relied on for years.

Firm power first

AI cannot pause. Its power cannot either.

AI tenants need power around the clock for the full length of a lease. So we only build on energy that is firm: steady in volume, contracted, and backed up.

Interruptible or declining sources, like flare gas, are better suited to Bitcoin mining, which our sister company Proton Mining runs. Accretion focuses on supply that lasts.

Sources

Energy we build on

Pipeline gas

Sites near transmission or distribution pipelines with long-term supply.

Gathering-system gas

Gas from producer gathering networks, with backup supply built in.

Landfill gas

Steady methane from landfills, captured and used to generate power on site.

Industrial sites

Existing industrial sites where power, permits and infrastructure are already in place.

Behind the meter

A shorter path from energy to compute

A grid-connected data centre waits for power to be generated far away and carried in. Behind the meter, generation sits on the same site as the load.

Grid-connected: power plant, transmission lines, utility meter, data centre. Behind the meter: fuel, on-site generation and the AI hall inside one site boundary. Grid-connected Power plant Transmission, queue, upgrades Utility meter Data centre Behind the meter One site Fuel Generation AI hall No transmission No interconnection queue Power is made where it is used
Simplified and illustrative. Some sites may also connect to the grid for backup or export.

Securing supply

How we make energy dependable

  1. Long-term supply

    Fuel agreements with producers that run for the length of the tenant's lease.

  2. On-site generation

    Generation sized to the load, with spare units so maintenance never means downtime.

  3. Backup fuel

    A second supply path, such as pipeline or gathering-system backup, wherever possible.

  4. Aligned interests

    Producers gain a steady, long-term buyer. Tenants gain power they can plan around.

Energy that would otherwise be stranded, flared or left unused can power the next generation of compute.
