[Oracle urges regulators to speed up approval of data center natural gas pipeline project] October 14th, Oracle once again requested federal regulators to quickly approve a natural gas pipeline to meet the power supply needs of its large data center project in New Mexico. Josh Pitcock, Oracle's senior vice president of government affairs, said in a letter to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission on Tuesday that if the commission continues to delay approval of the pipeline project operated by a subsidiary of Energy Transfer LP, it will "threaten the operational schedule of Project Jupiter (Project Jupiter), thereby affecting the resulting jobs, economic activity and community benefits." The pipeline, called Green Chile, will transport approximately 400 million cubic feet of natural gas per day to power fuel cells provided by Bloom Energy to support the Jupiter project. Currently, the pipeline's operational date has been postponed to February 2027, far later than the previously planned operational date of August 15.
