NVIDIA Corporation doubled its investment in data center firm SB Energy to $3 billion.

The chipmaker added $1.5 billion through a prepaid forward contract for non-voting common stock.

This move follows reports that SB Energy may delay its initial public offering.

The arrangement supplements an original $1.5 billion commitment at the IPO price.

NVIDIA will receive the additional shares at a 10% discount to the offering price.

The partnership secures critical power and data infrastructure for the expanding AI industry.
