EDITOR BRIEF

Boom Supersonic CEO Blake Scholl said Crusoe no longer plans to use Boom’s stationary power plants in the near term. The change appears to halt a previously announced $1.25B effort to support AI data centers with Boom turbine-based power.

COMMENTARY

The reversal highlights how fast-moving AI infrastructure plans remain vulnerable to execution, cost, and technology-readiness risks. It also suggests that unconventional data center power strategies may face a tougher path from announcement to deployment as demand for reliable energy keeps rising.
