Super Micro Computer Inc, a provider of AI, enterprise, storage, and 5G/edge solutions, has announced the launch of its largest U.S. facility. This new Data Center Building Block Solutions® (DCBBS) campus, along with a major expansion of its Silicon Valley presence, includes a cutting-edge business complex located near its headquarters in San Jose, California.

The new site covers roughly 32.8 acres and more than 714,000 square feet, making it the company’s fourth location in the Bay Area and increasing its total regional space to nearly 4 million square feet. The campus will enable a broad range of domestic activities, including advanced system design, manufacturing, testing, servicing, and global distribution of its DCBBS offerings for AI infrastructure.

According to CEO Charles Liang, the new campus represents a strong commitment to U.S.-based innovation and manufacturing. Expanding operations in San Jose is expected to create high-quality professional opportunities while strengthening the company’s ability to innovate, scale production, and deliver next-generation AI infrastructure efficiently.

The expansion is projected to generate hundreds of new roles across engineering, manufacturing, and business functions, reinforcing the company’s long-term investment in local talent and domestic production capabilities.

San Jose Mayor Matt Mahan noted that the expansion enhances the city’s role in the global AI ecosystem by boosting manufacturing, testing, and distribution capacity. He emphasized that the investment will drive economic growth, create skilled jobs, and support the development of advanced AI infrastructure.

As demand for AI systems continues to rise worldwide, the company is increasing its U.S. capabilities to support enterprises and cloud providers managing complex, compute-intensive workloads. Its integrated approach—from system design to full rack-scale solutions—helps accelerate deployment, improve energy efficiency, and lower overall costs for modern data centers.

The new facilities are designed to meet the growing demands of large-scale AI deployments, where efficient rack-level integration and rapid rollout are essential. They will strengthen support for hyperscale, cloud, and enterprise customers building AI-focused infrastructure, while reinforcing the company’s position as a leading U.S.-based manufacturer of high-performance computing systems.

DCBBS offers a modular, end-to-end AI infrastructure solution built from validated components and subsystems. It provides flexibility across deployment levels, from individual GPUs and networking equipment to complete racks, site infrastructure, management tools, and professional services.

President Trump has made a firm commitment: the United States will lead the world in artificial intelligence—and will do so decisively. At the heart of AI leadership is America's strength in energy. As Energy Secretary Chris Wright aptly put it, “AI converts electricity into the most valuable asset: intelligence.” Ensuring energy leadership supports national security, drives economic momentum, encourages innovation, and makes sure the country can fuel the AI revolution while maintaining dependable service and affordable energy for all Americans.

With the Trump administration rolling out its AI Action Plan, Duke Energy stands ready to meet surging energy needs with speed, innovation, and reliability. As data centers expand nationwide to support AI infrastructure, we're fully committed to powering this transformation. Over the past 10 years, Duke Energy has invested more than $100 billion in critical U.S. energy infrastructure—and we plan to invest another $190 billion in the coming decade.

We're enhancing our current power generation systems to extract more output from existing resources, building new facilities to handle growing AI demands, and laying plans to bring roughly 14 gigawatts of new capacity online by 2030—enough to power more than 10 million homes. At the same time, we're upgrading hundreds of thousands of miles of transmission lines to make energy delivery faster and more dependable. Simply put, Duke Energy is fully engaged in powering America's future.

Innovation is not just a priority—it’s embedded in who we are. From our earliest days of damming rivers to electrify states, we've embraced cutting-edge solutions. Today, we're building smarter grids, implementing self-healing technologies, and ensuring our infrastructure is AI-ready—keeping America powered and moving forward.

We are not only maximizing our existing fleet but also investing in new energy sources. Nuclear power remains a cornerstone of America’s energy future, and as the nation’s largest regulated nuclear operator, we're focused on safely extending the life of our plants. We’re also adding over 1 gigawatt of new capacity across our natural gas, hydro, and nuclear fleets, while bringing online advanced, high-efficiency natural gas plants to support rapid growth in key regions. Additionally, we offer innovative customer solutions that lower energy bills and improve efficiency—all while maintaining grid strength.

Our long-term success is anchored in strategic partnerships and forward-thinking investments. One such example is our collaboration with GE Vernova to secure up to 19 domestically produced natural gas turbines—an effort that helps us meet evolving energy needs driven by AI and economic expansion. This scale gives us flexibility in how and when we deploy resources. Amazon Web Services (AWS) recently selected North Carolina for a $10 billion AI infrastructure expansion—choosing our service territory after reviewing over 40 states. Through strong partnerships and agile execution, we’re helping position states like North Carolina—and others we serve—as top destinations for business growth.

Duke Energy is leading the way in achieving American energy leadership while ensuring power remains reliable and affordable. We’re working hand-in-hand with customers, policymakers, and local leaders to position the U.S. as a global frontrunner in AI and manufacturing. We applaud the progress made through recent legislation—such as the One Big Beautiful Bill—which supports energy goals with provisions for nuclear and storage incentives that benefit both customers and the nation.

In short, abundant, reliable, and affordable energy is the foundation on which America’s AI future will be built—and Duke Energy is fully prepared to help drive that future forward.
