DATA CENTERS
Who We Are I Rising Phoenix Energy
Rising Phoenix Energy is the newest vertical of Rising Phoenix Resources, created to capture the opportunity at the intersection of natural gas and artificial intelligence. Leveraging our experience in oil & gas, real estate, and capital raising, we are pioneering off-grid AI data centers powered directly by natural gas wells and gathering systems. ​
Our Approach
Direct Energy to Compute
On-site turbines convert natural gas molecules into electricity, fueling AI-ready data pods.
​
Modular & Scalable
1 MW “blocks” can be replicated across basins, creating flexible growth.
​
Grid-Positive
Facilities can send surplus power back into ERCOT, supporting – not straining – local communities.
​
Proven Partnerships
Working with engineering firms, midstream operators, and AI consultants to ensure technical excellence and operational scalability.
The Opportunity
Exploding Demand
​AI compute demand is projected to grow 10x by 2030.
​
Cost Advantage
​Lowest-cost power by sourcing gas at the wellhead.
​
Regulatory Tailwinds
​Off-grid solutions align with state and federal priorities to reduce grid strain.
​
Investor Returns
​Modeled 22 – 25% IRR and ~2.8x MOIC over 5 years, with upside from depreciation, carbon credits, and additional siting opportunities.
​​
Tax Advantages
Bonus Depreciation & Cost Segregation
​Accelerated schedules allow investors to capture significant paper losses in the first years.
​
Intangible Drilling Cost Offsets
​For projects tied to drilling, up to 90–95% of capital may be deductible in year one.
​
Opportunity Zone Eligibility (site-dependent)
​Potential capital gains deferral and tax-free appreciation.
​
Carbon Capture / 45Q Credits
​Additional tax offsets if carbon integration is included in the power stack.
​​
Community Impact
Local Jobs
​Each facility creates construction and ongoing technical jobs.
​
Tax Base Growth
​Property and production taxes contribute directly to county revenues.
​
Grid Relief
​By generating power off-grid and even exporting excess, facilities support community reliability instead of competing for scarce electricity.​
Where We Focus
Initial Pilot
​Barnett Shale (Texas) – 5 MW facility in planning.
​
Expansion Targets
​Marcellus, Haynesville, and Permian basins.​
Why It Matters
This strategy combines our energy expertise, real estate discipline, and capital markets experience into a scalable model. By converting natural gas into compute, Rising Phoenix Energy is helping investors capture growth, supporting local communities with tax and job creation, and contributing to the resiliency of the power grid
