The rally can be primarily attributed to the overall optimism on data center and high-performance computing (HPC) companies, bolstered by the continued AI expansion.

In other news, IREN Ltd. (NASDAQ:IREN) last Friday announced the successful energization of its 1.4 GW data center called Sweetwater 1 in Texas.

Energization marks the official connection of the facility to the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) grid, paving the way for the company’s target of energizing 2 GW in the Sweetwater campus.

Power delivery is expected to ramp progressively in line with the phased construction and commissioning of data centers at the site.

“Delivering Sweetwater 1 substation energization on schedule reflects our disciplined execution, the strength of our supply chain relationships, and the efficiency of our vertically integrated development model. It is another example of our ability to design and construct large-scale infrastructure reliably and at speed to meet market demand,” said IREN Ltd. (NASDAQ:IREN) co-CEO Daniel Roberts.
