Nvidia-backed Firmus signed OpenAI as an anchor customer for Malaysian data-centre capacity, taking contracted megawatts above 900. [1] Reuters filed the Tuesday deal. [1] This paper already printed those contracted megawatts at position 36. Monday still has no generation print, no dispatch log, and no second offtake sheet.
A second Firmus line is not a second plant. Contracted is not flowing. The 900-megawatt claim is a signature with OpenAI's name on it, and signatures do not hum.
Datacenter accounts hear turbines in every recap. Reuters hears a contract. This brief points at position 36 so the business desk does not build a second substation out of one press release. Malaysian capacity deals have multiplied this year as hyperscalers chase power outside constrained U.S. grids. Every one of them starts as paper. This one has not yet become anything else.
Press releases with megawatt numbers are the industry's standard opening move; meters come years later, if at all. OpenAI's name is the news here, not the electrons. This brief will revisit the yard when something hums.

Paper capacity in Malaysia still sits above 900 megawatts on a Tuesday signature. Generation would require a log this Monday does not have. Nvidia's backing and OpenAI's offtake remain the named facts. Do not read a humming substation into that contract.
