A NASDAQ-listed route into the AI-energy convergence: the proposed Nixxy-Tachyon9 platform pairs a 620-acre North Dakota campus, up to 1 GW of planned power, and a planned $5 billion Phase I GPU deployment.
NEW YORK, NY, June 8, 2026. For investors hunting public-market exposure to the place where artificial intelligence meets the power grid, a new development just landed on the radar. Nixxy, Inc. (NASDAQ: NIXX) said it has entered into a Letter of Intent with Tachyon9 Corporation, a privately held energy and infrastructure company, to pursue a strategic transaction that would create a publicly traded platform spanning AI infrastructure, power generation, and high-performance computing.
The thesis is straightforward. AI computing demand is accelerating worldwide, and it is pressing hard on electrical grids. Per the announcement, the project is designed to address one of the most critical constraints facing next-generation AI data center development: securing reliable and scalable energy. A deal that pairs compute with its own dedicated energy speaks directly to that bottleneck, and it does so inside a NASDAQ-listed wrapper that ordinary investors can actually reach.
If completed, the company said the combined business is expected to operate under the TACC brand while keeping its NASDAQ listing. The focus would be energy-backed AI infrastructure, including power generation assets, hyperscale data centers, and high-performance computing capacity for enterprise, hyperscale, and sovereign AI customers.
The proposed transaction has some concrete pieces. According to the announcement, it includes more than $64 million in contributed infrastructure and equipment assets, a planned $75 million private placement financing, and development of the 620-acre Nakota Project in Williston, North Dakota. The company described up to 1 gigawatt of planned power generation capacity over an anticipated 36-month buildout, with the first 120 megawatts of compute capacity targeted to be operational during the second quarter of 2027. The announcement also pointed to a signed memorandum of understanding supporting a planned $5 billion Phase I GPU deployment through a major compute offtake partner.
Location is where the energy angle gets specific. The Nakota Project sits in the Bakken energy region of North Dakota. Per the announcement, it is designed to leverage abundant natural gas resources and existing pipeline infrastructure to support large-scale AI computing, directly addressing one of the industry's most pressing challenges: securing reliable and scalable energy for data centers. That structure fits what the company described as the "Bring Your Own Power" trend, pairing dedicated energy infrastructure with data center campuses for long-term operational reliability.
The people behind the deal framed it in plain terms. "This transaction is designed to provide public market investors with exposure to one of the most important infrastructure themes of our time, the convergence of artificial intelligence and energy. The future of AI will depend on access to reliable, scalable power. We believe the Nakota Project has the potential to become a foundational asset supporting that transformation," said Shahal Khan, Chairman and CEO of Tachyon9.
Mike Schmidt, CEO of Nixxy, kept it short. "Power is becoming AI's most valuable resource. This transaction creates a platform to capitalize on that trend," he said.
On the numbers side, the company said Tachyon9 projects approximately $275 million in revenue during 2026 and is expected to contribute the majority of the infrastructure assets tied to the proposed transaction. Additional announcements on financing, governance, executive leadership, development milestones, and long-term plans are expected in the coming months.
A standard caveat applies. The company said the proposed transaction remains subject to due diligence, negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, regulatory approvals, board approvals, shareholder approval, financing arrangements, and other customary closing conditions, and may not be completed.
