ArcLight Capital Partners has appointed Gary Lambert as a senior advisor to help drive strategic initiatives focused on AI-related infrastructure opportunities. Lambert, the former CEO of Competitive Power Ventures (CPV), brings over 25 years of experience in power development and operations to the Boston-based firm. His expertise comes at a critical time as AI and data center demands reshape power infrastructure needs.

Lambert co-founded CPV more than two decades ago and built it into a significant player in the power sector. ArcLight, founded in 2001, operates as one of North America's largest developers and operators of power infrastructure. The firm's decision to bring Lambert on board signals a strategic push into the rapidly growing AI infrastructure market.

Angelo Acconcia, ArcLight's president, emphasized that Lambert's power operating and development expertise are proving critical for enabling AI, data center infrastructure, and broader electrification needs. This appointment strengthens ArcLight's already deep bench of capabilities as the firm positions itself to capitalize on the intersection of power infrastructure and artificial intelligence growth.
