This is truly insane.
Elon just personally bought a $1 billion gas turbine company, and no one announced it. No press release, no tweet. The deal only surfaced because a firm holding a 5% stake had to disclose its $50.4 million payout in an SEC filing. What he bought tells you where the real bottleneck in AI is.
APR Energy operates a fleet of mobile gas and diesel turbines totaling over 1 gigawatt. Their units arrive on trucks and can be delivered, installed, and commissioned in as little as a month. The fleet was built for blackout zones and disaster response in countries with unreliable grids.
Here's the constraint that makes it worth $1B to one man: Nvidia can deliver 100,000 GPUs in months. A new grid connection for a power plant spends a median of roughly 5 years in the interconnection queue. The chips depreciate while the paperwork sits.
Elon already lived this. xAI's first Memphis cluster ran 100,000 GPUs on about 150 megawatts, much of it from roughly 35 leased mobile turbines while grid power was pending. Environmental groups sued. The DOJ intervened to keep the turbines running. He was renting the most important input to his most important company.
So he bought the landlord. At $1B for 1+ gigawatts, he paid roughly $1 per watt of dispatchable power he can park anywhere. A gigawatt runs on the order of 600,000 H100-class GPUs.
Every AI lab can buy the same chips. Only one of them now owns a power plant fleet that ships by truck.
The son of the late Wagner founder Yevgeny Prigozhin and around 500 former mercenaries have built a major criminal empire in Africa.
After Prigozhin’s death in 2023, most Wagner overseas assets were absorbed by the Russian Defense Ministry’s African Corps. However, Pavel Prigozhin and about 500 loyalists refused to integrate and went independent.
They control illegal gold mining at the Ndassima mines in the Central African Republic, generating an estimated $500 million annually.
The group has also established its own drug cartel, smuggling high-dose tramadol, known in Africa as “cocaine for the poor,” and distributing it to fighters, pro-Russian demonstrators, and miners. They use the profits to buy weapons and maintain independence.
They have additionally set up the production of addictive alcoholic surrogates mixed with tramadol.
Local authorities in the Central African Republic are unable to dismantle this autonomous narco-empire in remote regions.
🚨🇩🇪In Germany, ads displayed in metro stations show a mother with two young children.
The message on the advertisement reads, “The Future or a climate killer,” implying that our children are destroying the planet.
These people are completely insane.
Islamists and their propaganda debunked below…
77% of the victims of the so called genocide in Srebrenica were head chopping Jihadis fighting against the Orthodox Christian Serbs to try and establish an Islamic state in the Balkans
