A SOLAR-POWERED AI COMPUTING NETWORK, BUILT ON TESLA POWERWALL BATTERIES. ONE NASDAQ STOCK IS BEHIND IT.
AI has a power problem. New data centers wait years for a grid connection, fight local opposition, and need large amounts of water for cooling.
@_openworld $OPNW just signed a non-binding term sheet with Meridian to finance and operate a different answer: compute nodes at homes, schools, hospitals and campuses, each powered by rooftop solar and a
@Tesla Powerwall battery.
The numbers:
Up to $1 billion in tokenized financing, structured and settled on-chain by OpenWorld.
First deployment: 10,000 homes. Test installs start Q4 2026. First commercial site targeted for Q1 2027.
No new data-center sites. No new grid interconnections. No water cooling.
Homeowners get paid a monthly hosting fee plus cheaper electricity. Schools and hospitals get a share of site revenue and backup power.
Starlink skipped the ground infrastructure and put the connection on the roof. This does the same thing for AI compute. The data center is the garage.
CEO Matt Shaw: “We can build AI capacity closer to the power source instead of waiting years for a grid connection.”
