GPU cloud agreements with hyperscale partners. This shift reflects stronger longterm demand signals for AI compute.

For ENGIE, though, the immediate priority is flexibility. Bitcoin mining remains one of the few digital infrastructure models capable of operating on highly variable energy input without strict uptime requirements.

Batteries versus data centres Battery storage represents the alternative pathway. Utility-scale batteries can store surplus solar energy and discharge it when grid demand rises. This supports grid stability and may reduce curtailment over time. datacentremagazine. com
