Comstock Resources

Comstock Resources and NextEra are developing a $16 billion gas-fired power hub in Anderson County, Texas, financed in part by Japanese capital to serve AI data centers and manufacturing. The project highlights growing competition between domestic data center demand and long-term LNG contracts by buyers like Mitsui, putting pressure on production and pipeline capacity. Analysts warn current output is sufficient for now but growth must keep pace with rising LNG exports and AI demand to avoid higher domestic prices or supply conflicts by 2030. » Altro su forbes.com
