ENGIE North America has signed a 48 MWac solar power purchase agreement with QTS Data Centers to supply renewable energy for data center operations in Irving, Texas.

ENGIE North America has signed a 48 MWac solar power purchase agreement with QTS Data Centers to supply renewable energy for data center operations in Irving, Texas, the company announced in a press release.

The QTS agreement was signed alongside a long term power purchase agreement between ENGIE and ABEI Energy. That deal secures renewable generation from ABEI Energy's Lubio Solar project in Kaufman County, Texas.

Lubio Solar is an approximately 61 MWac solar project that has not yet reached commercial operation. Once online, it is expected to generate about 150 GWh of electricity each year.

ENGIE said the transaction is ABEI Energy's first renewable energy deal with ENGIE in the United States. The companies have an existing partnership in Europe.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
