Welcome back to Powering Progress, our series examining the infrastructure challenges behind the rapid expansion of AI and data center development.

As demand for computing power grows, so does the need for reliable and scalable energy supply. For many projects, that means securing natural gas supply, developing pipeline infrastructure, or building on-site generation solutions to ensure consistent uptime.

In this episode, Vinson & Elkins' Chief Innovation Officer Aubrey Bishai is joined by Energy Regulation Partner Suzanne Clevenger, who advises clients on fuel sourcing, pipeline infrastructure, and energy supply strategies that support large-scale digital infrastructure.

Together they explore how developers and investors are approaching long-term fuel supply, reliability expectations, and the infrastructure required to keep these facilities running around the clock.
