Power agreements expand while execution details stay opaque
Electric power and oil-linked infrastructure are drawing new agreements, led by expanded GE Vernova cooperation with PDVSA and Corpoelec. In parallel, OFAC has authorized additional mining transactions, including gold, but investability still hinges on the authorization’s covered entities, transaction categories, reporting obligations and expiration terms.
Mining authorization broadens the investment perimeter as the P2P FX spread rises and power commitments await specifics.
Bottom line
Operators should treat the power and mining moves as triggers for diligence, not bankable execution: facility scope, financing arrangements and authorization terms remain the decisive missing inputs.
