This event will be hosted by Republican Senator David McCormick, aimed at accelerating the technological development of the U.S. in the fields of artificial intelligence and energy, and solidifying its global technological leadership. Core content of the plan According to government officials, this $70 billion investment plan covers the following core components: Data center construction: New high-performance data centers will be built to meet the rapidly growing demand for artificial intelligence computing power. Power generation capacity expansion: Focus on developing traditional energy sources such as nuclear, natural gas, and coal to respond to the surge in AI-driven electricity demand. Power grid infrastructure upgrades: Strengthen the power grid system to ensure stability and reliability of energy supply. Talent cultivation programs: Launch artificial intelligence training programs and apprenticeship plans to cultivate professionals in related fields to support long-term industry development. Blackstone to announce $25 billion investment This event will be held at the first Pennsylvania Energy and Innovation Summit at Carnegie Mellon University, expected to attract up to 60 executives from the AI and energy industries, including representatives from major companies like Blackstone Group. It is understood that Jonathan Gray, president of Blackstone Group, will announce a $25 billion investment plan focused on data centers and energy infrastructure construction at the event. The project is expected to create about 6,000 construction jobs and 3,000 long-term jobs each year. In addition to Blackstone Group, other companies such as Palantir, Exxon, and Chevron are also expected to participate or be mentioned, highlighting the close cooperation between the Trump administration and energy and technology giants, and reflecting the U.S. government's ambition to promote the integration of AI and the energy industry. Notably, in January of this year, Trump announced the "StarGate" plan, collaborating with OpenAI, Oracle, and SoftBank to invest $500 billion in AI infrastructure construction. Therefore, this $70 billion investment plan is also an important part of the Trump administration's technology and energy policy, continuing its emphasis on "deregulation" since taking office.
