Two new GPU cloud entrants, one in the country of Georgia and one in the UK, have both settled on Nvidia B300 hardware, according to DCD. Their starting points differ sharply: a telecom-backed cloud still waiting on permits, and an energy company that treats grid access as its main advantage.
Silk Cloud is a subsidiary of Silknet and part of the Silk Road Group. It plans to install HPE Nvidia HGX B300 systems in its Georgian data centers, aiming for a 2027 launch once the necessary permits are secured. The number of GPUs has not been disclosed.
Silknet has operated as a telecom provider since 2009, and launched Silk Cloud in 2025. The cloud unit sells cybersecurity, cloud systems, data management and AI implementation services to businesses. A Tbilisi data center for Silk Cloud broke ground in August 2026. It is described as offering 2MW of compute capacity and becoming operational next year. The site will connect to Silknet's national network, which includes more than 4,000 km of fiber backbone with cross-border links into Armenia, Azerbaijan and Turkey, and onward routes toward Europe, the Middle East and Asia.
Fuse Energy, which calls itself a full-stack energy company, has introduced Fuse Compute, an AI cloud service. It says its first 128 Nvidia GPUs are due online in December 2026, followed by 1,024 in Q2 2027. The company's website lists 700kW of live capacity in December, 3.25MW in Q2 2027, 22MW by Q4 2027 and 116MW in 2028 and beyond.
Fuse argues that getting power to the site is the hardest part of scaling compute, and says it already does that work. It cites 142MW of data center connections in its pipeline across 15 projects. Like Silk Cloud, it has chosen B300 GPUs.
Several details are missing. Silk Cloud has not given a GPU count. Fuse has not said which facilities will host its hardware or who will operate them, only that the data centers in the UK will be hosted and powered by Fuse.
Why it matters: The two announcements show GPU capacity being pursued from adjacent industries, telecom and energy, each leaning on existing network or power assets. Both plans still depend on execution: Silk Cloud on permits, and Fuse on delivering a steep capacity ramp from a small base.
