Our Mission Statement

New Power and Data: Powering the Future of Digital Innovation

At New Power and Data, our mission is to establish ourselves as the world’s premier power-generating digital infrastructure company, delivering cutting-edge, secure, and scalable behind-the-meter powered shell solutions and built-to-suit data centers that empower artificial intelligence (AI), high-performance computing (HPC), and digital enterprises to thrive. Headquartered in the dynamic Houston-The Woodlands-Sugar Land Metropolitan Statistical Area (Houston MSA), we are strategically positioned to meet the surging global demand for energy-intensive digital infrastructure. Our vision is bold yet clear: to serve as the foundational backbone of the digital world, enabling businesses to scale seamlessly, interconnect strategically, safeguard critical data, and pioneer groundbreaking products and services that shape the future.

Our world-class management team, with over 150 years of collective expertise in energy, technology, finance, and corporate strategy, is the driving force behind our ambitious goals. Led by CEO Brian Royce, a technologist with 35 years of experience and a proven track record in mergers and acquisitions, our leadership includes luminaries like Richard Heien, a former power plant developer, and Eric Geppert, a seasoned corporate attorney with deep M&A and governance expertise. Judge Robert Eckels, a national leader in transportation and crisis management, and Martin Martinez, a Tax Partner with extensive energy sector experience, round out a team uniquely equipped to execute complex, high-impact projects. This unparalleled leadership ensures that New Power and Data delivers innovative solutions with precision, reliability, and foresight.

We are committed to providing robust, sustainable power and state-of-the-art infrastructure that fuel the exponential growth of AI and digital innovation. Our flagship projects include the development of the largest natural gas power plant in Texas, powered by GE’s highly efficient turbines, and the deployment of Westinghouse AP300 Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) with integrated data centers across the Houston MSA. These initiatives are designed to deliver uninterrupted, cost-effective energy to meet the rigorous demands of AI and HPC workloads. By leveraging our deep experience in power generation and data center development, we create tailored, resilient solutions that address the evolving needs of a hyper-connected, technology-driven economy.

At New Power and Data, we go beyond merely powering technology—we empower progress. Our behind-the-meter powered shell infrastructure and built-to-suit data centers enable businesses to scale rapidly, interconnect with strategic partners, and protect sensitive data in an increasingly complex digital landscape. We are pioneering innovative approaches, such as piping CO2 emissions from our natural gas power plant into greenhouses to enhance agricultural productivity, creating a circular economy that supports local communities and generates additional revenue streams. This business-driven approach to sustainability ensures that environmental responsibility enhances, rather than hinders, our operational excellence.

The Houston MSA, with its 7.2 million residents, $512.2 billion GDP, and status as a global energy and technology hub, is the ideal location for our transformative projects. Home to 24 Fortune 500 headquarters, NASA’s Johnson Space Center, and the Texas Medical Center, Houston offers unmatched economic scale, infrastructure, and innovation ecosystems. Our focus on this region allows us to capitalize on its abundant natural gas resources, robust workforce, and business-friendly environment to deliver projects that drive economic growth and technological advancement.

As the demand for AI and HPC infrastructure continues to surge, New Power and Data is poised to lead the charge. We are not just building power plants and data centers; we are creating the foundation for the next era of human ingenuity. By delivering scalable, secure, and energy-efficient solutions, we enable our clients to innovate fearlessly, from advancing medical research to powering space exploration. At New Power and Data, we are committed to building the infrastructure that drives progress, positioning ourselves—and our partners—at the forefront of the digital revolution. Join us in shaping a future where energy abundance and technological innovation converge to transform the world.
