China, Wave. (AP) – An artificial intelligence data center that will use more electricity than every house in Wooming, before that size will soon spread to five times more, according to the city mayor, according to the mayor of the city.
“It’s a great game changer,” Mayor Patrick Collins said on Monday.
With the cold weather, Good is good to keep the temperature low-and the abundance of cheap electricity from the high energy generating state, the capital of woming has become a center of computing power.
The city has been home to Microsoft Data Centers since 2012, Collins said. Collins said Facebook’s parent company was nearing completion of $ 800 million announced by Meta Platforms last year.
According to a joint venture, the latest data center, a joint effort between regional energy infrastructure company Telgrass and AI Data Center developer Croso, will start with 1.8 GW of electricity and expand up to 10 GW.
A gigwat can strengthen a maximum of 1 million homes. But they are more homes than Wooming. There are about 590,000 people in the minimum populous state, Woming.
And he is a major energy exporter. According to the US Energy Information Administration, a high producer of coal, oil and gas, is only behind Texas, New Mexico and Pennsylvania.
Accounting for foam fuel, woming produces 12 times more energy than its use. According to the EIA, the state exports almost three three electric electricity.
According to Collins and Company officials, the proposed data center is so large, it will have its own dedicated energy from producing gas and renewable sources.
Government Mark Gordon praised the value of the project for the state’s gas industry.
Gordon said in a statement, “This is an interesting news for women’s producers and natural gas producers.
Although data centers are hungry, experts say companies can help reduce their influence on the climate through renewable energy instead of foam fuel. Nevertheless, power users can see their bills increase as a Utility Plan for large -scale data projects on the grid.
The data center will be built several miles (kilometers) south of the Sheen, a distance of US $ 85 near the Colorado State Line. State and local regulators will need to sign the project, but Collins hopes that construction may begin soon.
“I am sure his plans will go soon,” Collins said.
Chat GPT’s developer Openi, a large -scale AI data center called Star Gate, is crushing the United States for sites for the efforts of the AI data center, but a spokesman for Croso declined to say whether the Chinese project was one.
“We are not at any stage that we are ready to announce our tenant there,” said Andrew Schmidt. “I can’t confirm or deny that it is going to be one of the star gate.”
Recently, Openi has announced that it has changed the first phase of the Croso Bullet Data Center Complex in the Texas city of Abelin, in partnership with the software giant Oracle.
“According to our best knowledge, this is the largest data center,” told the Associate Press last week. We think of it as a campus. “It is almost and and how you count how you count.”
Openi is also watching anywhere else in the United States to expand its data centers. He said last week that he had contracted with Oracle to produce another 4.5 GHwat of the data center capacity.
“Now we are in a position where we have, in a solid way, more than five gigwats have been identified, which will help us to build it around,” said Lehn.
Openai has not named any location other than his flagship site in Texas, where he plans to build data centers.
By early this year, Woming was not one of the 16 states where Openi said he was looking for places to build new data centers.
