Stonepeak has launched Montera Infrastructure, a new North American hyperscale-focused data center company, and backed it with a $1.5 billion equity commitment.
Montera will develop and operate turnkey, build-to-suit data centers to support the rapid growth of cloud computing and AI-inferencing workloads for hyperscale customers across North America. The company will focus on land parcels with a clear path to near-term power in Tier I and Tier II metro areas and plans to construct and operate facilities of greater than 100 megawatts.
Eanna Murphy, a former data center executive at Yondr and Google, will lead the new company as founder and CEO. He is joined by a team of founding executives that includes Craig Pennington as chief technology officer and Joe Walsh as chief delivery officer — both of whom were formerly at Oracle and Equinix.
The founding executives collectively bring more than a century of experience in leadership roles
