Babcock & Wilcox and Denham Capital's Sustainable Infrastructure arm will jointly convert existing coal-fired plants, largely to natural gas, to power data centres in the US and Europe. B&W supplies the engineering and technology; Denham leads development and financing. No plant is named yet, so the pin sits at B&W's Akron headquarters.

Babcock & Wilcox signed a limited notice to proceed on a project valued at over $1.5 billion to design and install four 300 MW gas-fired boiler and steam turbine plants for an Applied Digital AI Factory, its entry into AI data-centre power.

B&W sold $67.5 million of new shares through its at-the-market program in two days, about $50 million of it to a single institutional investor, then paused the sales. The money backs its move into power for AI factories and data centres.

Babcock & Wilcox chose Siemens Energy to supply the steam turbine generator sets for its one-gigawatt Applied Digital power project, under a limited notice to proceed it said would let it deliver power by the end of 2028.

Babcock & Wilcox received full notice to proceed on a $2.4 billion design-build contract with Base Electron, an Applied Digital-backed power producer, for 1.2 GW of gas-fired boiler and steam turbine capacity to supply Applied Digital AI Factory campuses.

Fourth-quarter revenue was $161.0 million and adjusted EBITDA $16.4 million, and full-year 2025 adjusted EBITDA rose 107% to $43.7 million. Backlog reached $2.8 billion with the $2.4 billion Base Electron AI data-centre power project announced the same morning.

First-quarter revenue rose 44% to $214.4 million and adjusted EBITDA rose 296% to $16.1 million, while $81.8 million of non-cash warrant and stock costs left a $79.6 million net loss. Backlog stood at $2.7 billion and the pipeline passed $14 billion.

B&W sold 12.4 million new shares at $18.50 each, raising about $230 million with the underwriters' extra shares, and Applied Digital bought about 540,500 of them. The money is meant to expand steam turbine and boiler production for AI data centre power plants.

Revenue rose 130% to $319.7 million, $100.7 million of it from the Base Electron data-centre power project, and B&W swung to a $14.3 million net profit. It raised the top of its 2026 adjusted EBITDA target range to $105 million.

Babcock & Wilcox signed for Siemens Energy to start work on 20 steam turbine generator sets of 50 MW each, 1 GW in all, for its FastPower data-centre program, on top of the turbines already ordered for the Applied Digital project.

NVIDIA's revenue more than doubled from a year earlier to a record $96.2 billion for the quarter ended 26 July 2026, with Data Center at $89.0 billion, and it guided the third quarter to $108 billion.

Oracle began another round of layoffs, telling staff by early-morning email that it was their last working day, days after adding about $700 million to its AI-era restructuring plan.

A coalition for AI data centers that throttle their grid draw when the power system is stressed, in exchange for faster and larger grid connections; its backers say flexibility could unlock 100 GW on the existing US grid.

B&W's third-quarter 2026 report and its 5 p.m. ET call, estimated for Monday 9 November from its pattern of Monday-evening calls; the company has not announced the date yet. The quarter will be measured against its raised $80-105 million 2026 adjusted EBITDA target.

NVIDIA reports its third quarter of fiscal 2027 against its own guide of $108 billion in revenue, the quarter in which Vera Rubin is expected to reach about a fifth of Data Center sales.

The 1,200 MW gas-fired plant Babcock & Wilcox is building for Base Electron near Center, North Dakota, to power Applied Digital's AI data centres is now due to run in 2030, after B&W first promised power by the end of 2028.
