英伟达洽谈为Nscale数据中心债务担保,租户为Anthropic
据The Information 2026年10月29日报道,英伟达正洽谈为Nscale在西弗吉尼亚州的数据中心提供数十亿美元债务担保,该数据中心供Anthropic使用。彭博社也证实了这一消息,目前尚未签署协议。

摆在桌面上的担保
据The Information报道,这项拟议中的担保将帮助Nscale为其西弗吉尼亚园区筹措电力和建设资金。按照剩余价值担保的安排,一旦Nscale拖欠建设款项,英伟达将出面接手,暂时接管该设施,并协助寻找买家和新的租户。彭博社证实了这一报道。协议尚未签署,条款仍可能变化。TechCrunch报道称,英伟达此前对云服务商的支持主要覆盖租赁和芯片采购,并不涉及建设环节。
租户与合同
根据Nscale的IPO文件,Anthropic已为园区第一栋建筑签下446亿美元合同。TechCrunch报道称,这栋建筑功率为460MW,预计将使用英伟达的Vera Rubin芯片。双方还在讨论另一栋建筑的单独交易,价值约450亿美元。仅第一份合同就已超过Nscale IPO目标估值上限350亿美元。
TechCrunch报道称,Anthropic是AI算力的最大买家之一,其基础设施支出分散在多家芯片厂商。一位投资者对The Information表示,Anthropic的参与很可能解释了英伟达为何有意让该项目顺利推进。
英伟达的信贷支持
据The Information报道,英伟达已向新型云服务商和大客户提供约1700亿美元的投资和信贷支持,其中包括9月承诺向Nscale提供的10亿美元可转换融资。Data Center Dynamics报道称,Nscale于2026年9月提交IPO申请,同月晚些时候又完成了33.6亿美元私募融资。
Nscale的建设进度
TechCrunch报道称,截至8月,Nscale约有25000枚先进AI芯片在运行,仅占其计划部署的约50万枚的一小部分。其西弗吉尼亚施工现场的径流还曾不止一次淹没附近民宅。报道称,经过数月谈判,该项目于9月获得州级认证。
据TechCrunch报道,10月,微软退出了原计划在英格兰建设的Nscale站点,原因是该项目的电网供电被推迟到2030年代。
接下来会发生什么
TechCrunch报道称,Anthropic本周提交了上市申请。同一报道称,黑石已提醒投资者,Anthropic在IPO后可能获得低于投资级的信用评级。垃圾级评级将推高Anthropic的借贷成本,并可能使其不得不依赖实力更强的合作伙伴为其债务背书。
