  "summary": "Anthropic has struck a deal worth approximately $3.4 billion to secure gas-fired power generators for its data centers, according to the Financial Times. In late September, the AI startup secured commitments for 1.7 gigawatts of heavy-duty generators from OnePWR Solutions, an equipment supplier based in San Antonio, Texas.\n\nThe transaction includes the engineering and construction capabilities required to install the generators. While Anthropic did not acquire OnePWR Solutions or its employees, the deal involved taking over existing equipment orders that OnePWR had placed with Caterpillar about two years ago.\n\nThis move comes as Anthropic seeks additional computing and power capacity due to strong demand for its Claude family of AI models. Investing.com reports that the company has disclosed nearly $900 billion in computing commitments through 2045.",
