Beacon AI Centers Indus Project

Indus Power is proposing to construct, operate and decommission a new power-generating facility fueled by natural gas, located about two kilometres northwest of Indus, Alberta. As proposed, the project would include 100 natural gas reciprocating engine generators organized into modules, exhaust treatment systems, and air-cooled radiators, and would have a production capacity of about 1,494 megawatts to support a new data centre. The project is expected to operate for 25 years.


Latest update
