# Sovereign AI — Funding vehicles
## Four funding vehicles, drawn on one scale without a total

US CHIPS Act awards, sovereign-wealth-fund deployable capital, company infrastructure pledges, and the grid pre-emption signal around each EuroHPC AI Factory, kept separate from the government-execution reconciliation so a pledge is not mistaken for a budget.

Appropriated · CHIPS

$44.0B

US CHIPS Act final awards: **$38.5B** in grants (solid) plus **$5.5B** in loans (the lighter strip), across **26** awards. Appropriated government money, T1. **$7.4B** of it is under announced rescission review.

Pledged · corporate

$260.8B

Company infrastructure pledges, from **6** announcements (each the company’s own release, T1). The hatched **$102.5B** is already counted inside a program’s announced figure on Programs; adding it back would double-count. One figure is an “up to” ceiling, not a stated point.

Allocated · sovereign wealth

$119.4B

Current private-equity allocation aggregated across **30** sovereign funds (licensed database, T2, vintage 2026-05-19; aggregate only). The parchment field behind it is the **$5.7T** those funds manage in total, about **47×** the allocated slice, drawn to the same scale and leaving the frame. Capital under management is not AI deployment.

The grid ledger, measured in substationsDE65ES51FR16EU13IT12CZ10PL8FI1IE—NL—SE—

_Plate II._ Every square’s area is proportional to its dollars on one shared scale. The plate has no total by design: an appropriation, a pledge, and an allocation are different kinds of money, and none of them is a disbursement. Disbursed money is reconciled on the Programs view. The grid ledger counts substations within 50 km of each EuroHPC AI-Factory anchor (T1 OpenStreetMap topology, a structural edge-capacity proxy that does not measure headroom); an em dash there marks an anchor whose coordinates did not resolve.

Four kinds of capital, each from its own source, each with its provenance stated on its own panel below. Government grants (CHIPS) and sovereign-wealth deployable capital are kept separate from company pledges, and none of these is a disbursement. A pledge is realized only when it appears as a primary-sourced facility row on the [Map](/map); the government-execution reconciliation is on [Programs](/sovereign-ai).

**Rescission risk.** 2 rows have a rescission-risk flag, totalling $7.40B. The Trump administration announced removal of Natcast as NSTC operator in August 2025 and rescission of $7.4B in previously-awarded CHIPS R&D funds. The record keeps the announced final award and the subsequent rescission announcement side by side, and the rollup totals include both.

**Anchor coordinates unresolved.** 3 programs did not resolve to a named facility with coordinates, so the country-level substation count is the only signal available:IE (54 substations) · NL (65 substations) · SE (215 substations). Facility records derived from Epoch’s catalog commonly have no coordinates; those derived from OpenStreetMap do.
