  • The 52-hectare site will host six hyperscale facilities with up to 900 MW of critical IT load, backed by an on-site substation and a planned 2 GW maneuver station.
  • CloudHQ says it has secured power for the first 200 MW and is coordinating with CFE and Cenace on transmission and future capacity.
  • Construction is projected to create about 7,200 jobs, with roughly 900 permanent skilled roles once operations begin.
