Rithm delivers CoreWeave unprecedented AI infrastructure deployment velocity within the Southeast's most advanced technology ecosystem. This 113-acre hyperscale campus integrates purpose-built zoning, TECO's renewable grid architecture, and Florida's targeted 100MW+ incentive framework to achieve 18-24 month deployment cycles with 35% cost optimization versus saturated markets. The campus's 7.25M sq ft development capacity hosts 1,300+ engineers and researchers, eliminating talent acquisition bottlenecks while providing direct connectivity to Latin America's emerging AI infrastructure through Miami's NAP gateway.
TECO operates 27 solar installations totaling 900MW capacity, powering 200,000+ connections with 14% renewable integration (exponential growth from 0% in 2013). As Florida's leading solar producer per customer, TECO provides immediate access to renewable energy certificates and carbon offset networks.
15-MW/30-MWh energy storage systems with Wärtsilä's GEMS Energy Platform enable grid-scale renewable integration. 99.98% uptime reliability with 138kV transmission lines within 0.3 miles of Rithm campus.
Rithm offers CoreWeave fundamentally differentiated value proposition addressing core challenges facing hyperscale AI infrastructure deployment in 2025. The convergence of immediate power availability, proven renewable energy partnerships, Florida's targeted incentives, and active innovation ecosystem creates operational advantages that traditional isolated hyperscale campuses cannot replicate.
While competitors navigate 3+ year power allocation queues and escalating costs in saturated markets, Rithm enables CoreWeave to deploy 350MW+ initial capacity within 18-24 months, capturing first-mover advantages in both Southeast market and Latin American expansion opportunities.
The strategic window is immediate: Tampa Electric's available capacity, Florida's business-friendly regulatory environment, and Rithm's purpose-built infrastructure provide CoreWeave a clear path to sustainable hyperscale deployment combining operational excellence with competitive differentiation in the rapidly evolving AI infrastructure market.
