NEWS: ArcLight is launching a $1B transmission business.

  • Live wires: ArcLight is forming an independent company called Anchor Point Transmission, which will work with utilities to ramp up the high-voltage Tx buildout amid speedy load growth from AI, manufacturing, and electrification. 

  • BTW: In May, data center investor DigitalBridge announced it was acquiring ArcLight, creating “a leading alternative asset manager at the convergence of power, AI, and digital infrastructure.” But, as noted in a statement, ArcLight runs “as a separately managed business.”

  • The takeaway? This move highlights transmission as a key piece of the power puzzle.
