The data center will be located on a 480-acre site at Pine Island, a town of about 4,000 people some 70 miles southeast of Minneapolis. Google had not publicly disclosed its role in the project previously. The facility will be used for artificial intelligence applications as well as Google's broader cloud business. The proposed data center at Pine Island has faced community opposition but is supported by the city council. It has not begun construction yet. Data centers are facing political blowback in communities across the U.S. more often as people blame them for rising electricity prices in some regions and worry about their environmental impact. Data centers also consume a significant amount of water for cooling. Google declined to disclose how much electricity the data center will consume. The tech company said it will pay for any electric grid infrastructure needed for the project. The Minnesota Public Utilities Commission still must review the agreement between Google and Xcel. "What Google is doing is ensuring that when we show up, we aren't putting additional costs on other ratepayers," Amanda Peterson Corio, head of data center energy at Google, told CNBC in an interview. "We will pay 100% of our energy and electricity costs, and we will make sure that new additional capacity is put on to the grid to be able to serve our needs."Additional transmission infrastructure is needed for the Pine Island data center, said Bria Shea, president of Xcel for Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota. Google will pay for any new transmission associated with the project even if the data center does not materialize for some reason, Corio said. Google will deploy 1,400 megawatts of wind power, 200 megawatts of solar and 300 megawatts of battery storage to the grid under the agreement with Xcel. The renewable projects will be owned by the utility. They are expected to come online in 2028 and 2029, Shea said.Google will also pay a premium for the renewable power under a tariff designed to insulate consumers from the infrastructure costs while accelerating the deployment of clean energy in Minnesota, according to the tech company. The town's residents have formed a group called "Stop the Pine Island Data Center." The Minnesota Center for Environmental Advocacy filed a lawsuit in October challenging the environmental review of the project. Pine Island's city council approved two preliminary development plans for the data center in December, according to local broadcaster KTTC. It also approved financial incentives that include a $36 million tax abatement in February, according to the outlet. City Administrator Elizabeth Howard said Pine Island would collect more than $130 million in tax revenue from the project, according to KTTC. Minnesota has not been a major data center market in the past but the big tech companies are increasingly eyeing the state. There are currently 74 data centers in Minnesota. Virginia, the largest market worldwide, has 570 such facilities, according to the Data Center Map. Correction: This article has been updated to correct the name of the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission.

Chaitanya Tendolkar, Founder of Westbay Resort & Spa and Villas by Westbay, explains how his Chartered Accountant background shaped a finance-first approach to building a luxury hospitality brand. View More
Founders in India's changing luxury hospitality sector require the discipline of financial oversight within an industry driven by emotion. For Chaitanya Tendolkar, Founder of Westbay Resort & Spa and Villas by Westbay, building a premium resort in Ganpatipule was as much about disciplined capital allocation as it was about crafting guest experiences. In a conversation with The Economic Times Digital, Tendolkar discusses how his Chartered Accountant experience shaped his strategies for scaling hospitality businesses, handling regulatory challenges, and implementing an asset-light, system-driven expansion across Maharashtra's up-and-coming regions. Economic Times (ET): You began your career as a Chartered Accountant before founding Westbay Resort & Spa. How did your financial background influence the way you structured and scaled your hospitality venture? Chaitanya Tendolkar (CT): My background as a Chartered Accountant fundamentally shaped how I approached hospitality. While many hospitality ventures focus heavily on design and guest experience, they often underestimate financial discipline. Being a CA helped me build Westbay with strong cost controls, liquidity planning, structured capital allocation, and tight compliance frameworks from day one. Hospitality is an emotionally driven industry, but without financial governance, it becomes unsustainable. Our growth has always been backed by structured financial modelling, break-even mapping, and long-term liquidity planning, not just optimism. Live Events ET: Setting up a luxury resort in Ganpatipule was both a business and emotional decision. What were the biggest strategic challenges? CT: Ganpatipule is pristine, but geographically distant from metro hubs like Mumbai and Pune. That meant higher logistics costs, delays in material procurement, and challenges in hiring skilled manpower willing to relocate. But the larger challenge was mindset, convincing guests and stakeholders that luxury hospitality can thrive beyond established destinations like Goa. We had to build not just a property, but confidence in the destination. That required sustained branding, marketing, and reputation-building. ET: or entrepreneurs looking to establish a hotel chain today, what are the three fundamentals they must get right? CT: The first fundamental would be liquidity and patience . The first year is brand-building, and not profit-making. The second would be reputation management. Online reviews and guest feedback are currency in this industry. The third would be continuous marketing and adaptation. PR, sales promotions, technology integration, and AI-driven insights are no longer optional. Hospitality is not a static asset business. It is a dynamic brand business. ET: Where do first-time hotel founders underestimate complexity? CT: They underestimate time to break-even and regulatory exposure. Land acquisition, fire compliance, environmental clearances, operational licenses- these are serious layers of complexity. One regulatory lapse can shut down operations overnight. Hospitality demands thorough SWOT analysis and compliance readiness before construction even begins. ET: What changes when you move from running one property to building a chain? CT: When scaling, you move from owner-driven operations to system-driven governance. At Westbay, our expansion strategy is management-led rather than asset-heavy. Through structured management contracts, we partner with standalone properties and bring branding, PR, revenue management, sales strategy, and operational optimisation. The focus shifts from ‘running a hotel’ to ‘building a hospitality system.’ ET: With Villas by Westbay, you are expanding into curated luxury villas. How does this model differ from traditional resort operations? CT: The villa segment operates on asset-light, experience-driven economics. Unlike a resort, villas require curated positioning, hyper-local marketing, dynamic pricing, and strong distribution networks. What makes Villas by Westbay strategic is its regional focus. While national players exist, the 400-km Konkan belt from Dapoli to Malvan remains underrepresented. By leveraging our existing brand equity in Ganpatipule, we are building first-mover advantage in Maharashtra’s emerging destinations- Ambaghat, Alibaug, Ratnagiri, and beyond. ET: What determines whether a resort becomes sustainably profitable? CT: Occupancy and ADR matter, but brand positioning and marketing liquidity matter more. Hospitality has heavy upfront capex. Without sustained marketing investment and brand recall, occupancy fluctuates. On the other hand, profitability comes from strong brand image, operational efficiency, strategic pricing, experience monetisation (F&B, spa, activities) and reputation capital. When managed correctly, hospitality is not low-margin; it is brand-sensitive. ET: How do you evaluate sustainability investments like solar or water recycling? CT: Sustainability is both environmental responsibility and cost optimisation. Solar panels, water recycling, and energy-efficient systems reduce long-term operating costs. But such investments must be pre-planned in capex allocation. Sustainability cannot be an afterthought, it must be built into financial structuring. ET: How do you consistently deliver personalised experiences? CT: Luxury today means engagement. At Westbay, we focus on immersive in-resort experiences including activities for all age groups, curated dining options, relaxation-driven environments, and service personalisation. The goal is to create a self-contained experience ecosystem. ET: How do you manage online reviews and how do you handle criticism publicly? CT: We treat reviews as operational dashboards. Our staff is encouraged to proactively request detailed feedback, which ensures accountability at every touchpoint. Real-time monitoring allows us to identify patterns and make corrections quickly. Negative reviews are inevitable. We respond transparently, address issues within scope, and provide honest explanations when required. Reputation is built not by avoiding criticism, but by handling it with professionalism and accountability. ET: s you scale, how will you maintain service quality and what is your 3–5 year roadmap? CT: Training and morale will be the key. We invest in periodic staff training, team engagement initiatives, celebrations, and structured internal culture-building. A motivated team is the backbone of service excellence. Our strategy is asset-light expansion through management partnerships and curated villa listings under Villas by Westbay. Capex will largely be allocated toward marketing, brand-building, and distribution systems rather than asset acquisition. Our vision is long-term sustainability, destination development, and creating a scalable hospitality ecosystem across Maharashtra, one property at a time. .Pbanner{display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;background-color:#ec1c40;margin-top:20px;padding:5px 10px;border-radius:4px;color:#fff;line-height:10px;} .Pbannertext{display:flex;align-items:center;font-size:16px;font-weight:600;font-family:'Montserrat';} .Pbannertext img{height:20px;margin:0 6px} .Pbannerbutton a{display:flex;align-items:center;background-color:#fff;color:#ec1c40;text-decoration:none;font-weight:600;padding:4px 8px;border-radius:6px;font-size:15px;font-family:'Montserrat';} .Pbannerbutton img{height:20px;margin-right:6px} .Pbannerbutton a:hover{background-color:#f7f7f7} Add as a Reliable and Trusted News Source Add Now!
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman defended the resource use of AI on Friday, arguing that water concerns were "fake" and comparing it to human energy use. View More
Sam Altman, chief executive officer of OpenAI Inc., at the AI Impact Summit in New Delhi, India, on Thursday, Feb. 19, 2026. Prakash Singh | Bloomberg | Getty Images OpenAI CEO Sam Altman on Friday defended the resource demands of artificial intelligence, calling concerns about data centers' water use "fake" and comparing the energy used by AI systems to that of humans.Altman was speaking on the sidelines of the India AI Impact summit in an interview with The Indian Express when he was asked to address common criticisms of AI, such as its energy and water consumption. The CEO responded that claims circulating online that ChatGPT uses gallons of water per query were "completely untrue, totally insane," and have "no connection to reality." Data centers traditionally use large amounts of water to cool electrical components and prevent overheating. While data center cooling technologies have promised reduced consumption, some newer data centers no longer rely on water at all.Still, even with improving efficiency, a report last month from water technology company Xylem and Global Water Intelligence projected that the water drawn for cooling would more than triple over the next 25 years as computing demand rises, putting pressure on water systems.While dismissing fears about water use, Altman said energy consumption remains a fair AI concern. "Not per query, but in total â because the world is using so much AI ... and we need to move towards nuclear or wind and solar very quickly," he said. Asked about previous comments from Microsoft founder Bill Gates â who has suggested that the efficiency of the human brain proves that AI can evolve to also become more energy efficient over time âAltman pushed back."One of the things that is always unfair in this comparison is people talk about how much energy it takes to train an AI model ... But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human," he said. "It takes like 20 years of life, and all the food you eat before that time, before you get smart." "The fair comparison is if you ask ChatGPT a question, how much energy does it take once a model is trained to answer that question, versus a human, and probably AI has already caught up on an energy efficiency basis, measured that way," he added. The process Altman is referencing is known as inference, which refers to the use of AI models that have already been trained to create new outputs. AI inference is typically much less power-intensive than the training itself. Altman's comments, particularly the AI-to-human comparison, have since sparked some debate online amid growing anxiety about AI's ability to replace human work.Sridhar Vembu, co-founder and chief scientist of Indian software company Zoho Corporation, who was present at the summit, criticized the human-AI equivalence. "I do not want to see a world where we equate a piece of technology to a human being," the billionaire said in an X post. The debate comes as governments and companies pour billions into new data centers to support the computing needs of AI systems.According to a May report by the International Monetary Fund, electricity consumption by the world's data centers in 2023 had already reached levels comparable to Germany or France, soon after the launch of OpenAI's groundbreaking ChatGPT AI model.In response, some governments have been working to speed up approval processes to bring new and cheap energy online, with some environmentalists warning such moves could clash with global net-zero goals.Some local communities in countries like the U.S. have also pushed back on development projects over fears they will strain electricity grids and raise overall electricity costs. Last week, the City Council in San Marcos, Texas, voted down a proposed $1.5 billion data center project after months of public opposition. Amid such pushback, many tech leaders, including OpenAI's Altman, have argued data centers will require more energy production from diverse sources, including renewable and nuclear energy. watch nowVIDEO5:3505:35Energy Fuels CEO on surging demand for uranium & rare earthsWorldwide Exchange

Odisha's critical minerals sector is set to hit USD 18-20 billion by 2032 from USD 8 billion currently. The state is set for a transformative leap in the critical minerals sector. This remarkable rise is powered by strategic policies and hefty industrial investments. View More
New Delhi: Odisha's critical minerals sector is set to hit USD 18-20 billion by 2032 from USD 8 billion currently, while the processing and manufacturing share will quadruple, a study by an industry body said. According to new projections by the Net Zero Energy Transition Association (NETRA) released at the recently concluded Global Cleantech Expo-Odisha 2026 , the state is set for a transformative leap in the critical minerals sector. The study revealed that Odisha's mineral production value is expected to skyrocket from USD 8 billion in 2025 to USD 18-20 billion by 2032, with a dramatic shift in the state's mining, processing, and manufacturing profile, from 40 per cent, 10 per cent and 5 per cent in 2025 to 50 per cent, 40 per cent, and 30 per cent, respectively, by 2032, driven by focused policy and industrial investment. The two-day Global Cleantech Expo-Odisha 2026, held in Bhubaneswar on February 20-21, was inaugurated by state MSME Minister Gokulananda Mallik. The expo featured over 75 exhibitors from across the clean technology spectrum, including Luminous, GMR, AMAZE, Havells , MGM Green Energy, ICON Solar, Trontek, NED Energy, Navitas, Novasys, PV Blink, World Green Energy and others. Live Events The event witnessed the presence of senior government officials and industry leaders, highlighting Odisha's growing stature as a cleantech investment destination. Debi Prasad Dash, Executive Director, NETRA, said, "Odisha's rapid rise as a preferred destination for critical minerals and cleantech investment reflects the state's progressive vision and proactive policy environment. With significant reserves of over 30 critical minerals, Odisha is uniquely positioned to anchor India's clean energy future". Backed by recent discoveries, including lithium in Nayagarh and graphite, vanadium and cobalt, the state is accelerating its drive to build robust supply chains and maximise value addition. Initiatives like the Rare Earth Corridor in Ganjam and a dedicated auction calendar for critical mineral blocks are further positioning Odisha as India's centre for solar, battery, and EV manufacturing. More than 10 leading industries, including Tata Power , World Green Energies, Himadri Speciality Chemicals, Hindalco , and Luminous, have already pledged significant manufacturing investments in the state, leveraging Odisha's strategic port connectivity to access both domestic and international markets. Mallik said, "The government's unwavering commitment to the Net Zero goal by 2070 is driving transformative progress for MSMEs and startups. Our (State Government's) '5J' vision - Jal, Jungle, Jami, Jiba Jantu, and Jana Sadharan -- ensures sustainable development and ecological conservation at the heart of Odisha's growth." With robust port connectivity and a pipeline of more than 35 critical mineral blocks up for auction, Odisha is fast advancing India's critical minerals drive, reinforcing its role as the nation's emerging cleantech leader. .Pbanner{display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;background-color:#ec1c40;margin-top:20px;padding:5px 10px;border-radius:4px;color:#fff;line-height:10px;} .Pbannertext{display:flex;align-items:center;font-size:16px;font-weight:600;font-family:'Montserrat';} .Pbannertext img{height:20px;margin:0 6px} .Pbannerbutton a{display:flex;align-items:center;background-color:#fff;color:#ec1c40;text-decoration:none;font-weight:600;padding:4px 8px;border-radius:6px;font-size:15px;font-family:'Montserrat';} .Pbannerbutton img{height:20px;margin-right:6px} .Pbannerbutton a:hover{background-color:#f7f7f7} Add as a Reliable and Trusted News Source Add Now!

Clean Max Enviro Energy IPO GMP today: As of February 23, 2026, the grey market premium indicates a marginal 0.3% upside over the upper end of the price band, pointing to limited listing gains. The issue, priced in the range of Rs 1,000–Rs 1,053 per share, comprises a fresh issue of Rs 1,200 crore and an offer for sale (OFS) of Rs 1,900 crore. Clean Max Enviro Energy IPO Details Clean Max Enviro Energy Solutions IPO is a Rs 3,100 crore issue, comprising a fresh issue of 1.14 crore shares worth Rs 1,200 crore and an offer for sale of 1.80 crore shares aggregating to Rs 1,900 crore. The share allotment is likely to be finalised on February 26, 2026. The company’s shares are scheduled to list on BSE and NSE on March 2, 2026. The price band for the IPO has been fixed at Rs 1,000–Rs 1,053 per share. Investors can bid in lots of 14 shares, with a minimum investment of Rs 14,742 for retail applicants at the upper price band. The issue closes on February 25, and at the upper end of the price band, the company’s pre-IPO market capitalization is estimated at Rs 12,325 crore. About Company CleanMax, established in 2010, is India’s largest renewable energy provider for the commercial and industrial (C&I) segment. As of October 2025, it has 2.80 GW of operational, owned, and managed capacity, along with 3.17 GW of contracted capacity under execution. The company delivers solar, wind, and hybrid energy solutions, primarily through long-term power purchase agreements (PPAs) with C&I clients. On the financial front, the company has staged a turnaround. Revenue increased to Rs 1,610 crore in FY25 from Rs 1,425 crore in FY24. It reported a net profit of Rs 19.43 crore in FY25, compared to a loss in the previous year. EBITDA margins also improved significantly to 63.1% in FY25 from 52% in FY24. That said, leverage remains high. Net debt stood at Rs 5,938 crore in FY25, with a net debt-to-equity ratio of 1.9x. A substantial portion of the IPO proceeds is earmarked for debt repayment, which is expected to strengthen the company’s balance sheet. At the upper end of the price band, the issue is valued at nearly 16 times EV/EBITDA. While analysts consider the valuation on the expensive side, they note strong growth visibility driven by increasing renewable energy adoption and rising demand from data centres and AI-related industries. Should you subscribe? Swastika Investmart assigned a "Neutral" rating and said the issue appears aggressively valued on recent financials, though superior EBITDA margins and operating metrics justify the pricing to some extent. It added that the IPO may be avoided for short-term or listing gains, but can be considered by well-informed investors for the medium to long term Aditya Birla Money has recommended Subscribe for long-term, citing under-penetration in C&I renewable energy, projected capacity additions and strong capital efficiency. It expects demand visibility to improve as renewable penetration rises and sectors such as data centres require round-the-clock green power. With grey market premium at just 0.3%, the issue does not indicate strong short-term listing excitement. Investors looking for quick gains may remain cautious, while those with a longer investment horizon and comfort with capital-intensive renewable businesses may evaluate the company's growth prospects and debt reduction plans before taking a call.
