I was checking to see if this had made it to the Alberta Major Projects website yet. It hasn't, but there's a smaller version being constructed in Balzac;

It includes it's own 90mW power generation plant. Just a baby compared to what these guys are talking, but these places are obviously a real thing. I wonder if Alberta's lack of seismic activity is part of the attraction.
Edit....I read more deeply my own link. This eStruxture company already has 2 of these in the Calgary area. I am clearly late to the party when it comes to what's going on in Alberta with data centers. |
It's possible that one is related to this?
It says this would be a slow rolling 15 year long project.
