Data Center Energy Financing Solutions

Building digital infrastructure requires massive capital resources. Adding on-site energy infrastructure can accelerate speed-to-power, but risks lowering returns. 

Scale’s energy financing solutions, enabled by our equity partnership with EQT Group, allow data center developers to focus on their core investments in server capacity and footprint expansion. 

We develop, build, finance, own, and operate on-site energy assets, allowing our partners to deploy their capital where it is needed most.
