Pennsylvania Secures $90B AI, Energy Investment

President Donald Trump and Senator Dave McCormick announced over $90 billion in private-sector investments from more than 20 major tech and energy firms—including Google, Blackstone, CoreWeave, Meta, Anthropic, and Enbridge—to establish Pennsylvania as a national hub for artificial intelligence, data centers, and energy infrastructure. Google will invest $25 billion in data centers and grid innovation, while Blackstone and other firms are supporting both renewable and traditional energy projects to meet AI's growing power demands. The initiative aims to create tens of thousands of jobs and strengthen U.S. manufacturing and energy independence to compete globally, especially with China. The summit addressed the significant rise in energy consumption driven by AI and featured commitments to cybersecurity education and rural tech development. Prominent political and business leaders attended the Pennsylvania Energy and Innovation Summit in Pittsburgh. Pennsylvania’s energy and technology sectors are central to Trump's broader economic and technological strategy.
