    What this means for your AI infrastructure plan

    Training a model in the same league as Claude 4 (Opus) requires a dedicated AI factory: thousands of accelerators, megawatts of firmed power, low-PUE cooling, sovereign data residency and a multi-year financing structure. Below is how we translate the public profile above into a deployable plan.

    Cluster sizing

    We size GPU/TPU equivalents to your target FLOPs, accounting for MFU (Model FLOPs Utilization), checkpointing overhead and fault tolerance.

    Power & cooling

    From the ~60–90 MW (Project Rainier cluster) reference, we derive substation requirements, PUE targets and cooling architecture (DLC, immersion, hybrid).

    CapEx + OpEx

    Full 20-year financial model: hardware, real estate, energy contracts, staffing, refresh cycles. Stress-tested against energy price scenarios.

    Sovereign deployment

    EU residency, NIS2 / GDPR alignment, optional air-gapped operation. No US CLOUD Act exposure.

    Why this matters

    Planning a model at Claude 4 (Opus)-class scale?

    Talk to our infrastructure team. We size GPU clusters, power, cooling and financing for frontier-scale training and inference workloads — on sovereign EU infrastructure.

    • GPU cluster sizing (H100 / H200 / B200) for your target FLOPs
    • Power, cooling and PUE modelling for 5–150 MW deployments
    • CapEx + 20-year OpEx scenario, financing pathway
    • Site selection across MAD1 (Madrid) + Iberian greenfield + brownfield assets

    Public estimates for Claude 4 (Opus) indicate the cluster scale, capex and energy footprint required to train a peer model. We translate that into a deployable plan on EU-sovereign infrastructure.
