Keel Infrastructure Supports Governor Shapiro’s GRID Standards for Responsible Data Center Development
Panther Creek and Sharon permitting continue to proceed on schedule and are unaffected by Executive Order 2026-05
NEW YORK, Aug. 20, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Keel Infrastructure Corp. (Nasdaq: KEEL; TSX: KEEL) (“Keel” or the “Company”), a North American digital infrastructure and energy company, today endorsed Executive Order 2026-05, signed August 18 by Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, and the Governor’s Responsible Infrastructure Development (“GRID”) Standards.
“As one of the leading infrastructure developers in Pennsylvania, we proudly support Governor Shapiro’s new GRID standards, which largely reflect Keel’s long held standards for responsible development and community engagement,” said CEO Ben Gagnon. “We engage with communities long before we file permits, and we measure ourselves on tangible outcomes delivered locally. Pennsylvania is setting the highest bar in the country for this industry, and we intend to clear it at Panther Creek, at Sharon, and at every project we build in the Commonwealth. We are glad to keep working alongside the Governor’s Office, the Department of Environmental Protection, our utility partners and local officials to help ensure this growth benefits Pennsylvania for years to come.”

Keel strongly supports each of GRID’s four key principles, having already implemented these standards across the Company’s development projects to-date:
