Fermi America Leases Seven GE Gas Turbines To Power Massive 11GW HyperGrid Project In Texas, Secures 157.5MW Of Natural Gas Capacity For AI-Focused HyperGrid, Operations To Begin In 2026

Fermi America™ (NASDAQ:FRMI), in partnership with the Texas Tech University System, has entered a long-term capital lease agreement with Mobile Power Solutions (MPS) for seven GE TM2500 gas turbines, totaling 157.5 megawatts (MW) of nameplate capacity. These fast-deploying, high-efficiency, versatile turbines expand Fermi's natural gas platform — a cornerstone of Project Matador, the world's largest 11GW private HyperGrid™ campus. 

 

The TM2500 units will bring flexible, dispatchable power online as Fermi delivers on its mission to secure American energy and AI dominance by integrating natural gas, nuclear, solar, and battery storage at scale. 

The turbines will be delivered in the fourth quarter of 2025, entering commercial operation in early 2026 as part of Fermi's first 500 MW of generation capacity. A critical part of Fermi's initial tranche of power, the TM2500's will remain long-term as part of the strategic assets supporting Fermi's aggressive growth goals to keep pace with the country's AI demand.
