The 716-acre campus in the Switchgrass Industrial Park calls for four data halls plus office, logistics and network buildings, with full build-out targeted for 2031. The land was formerly the Crusoe-led Project Jade and is now known as Project Tembo.\n\nGoogle says the facility will be air-cooled to limit water use and that it will pay for 100% of the power it consumes. Partners include Tallgrass Energy, Black Hills Energy, AEP and Related Digital. One report says the supply includes a 702-megawatt natural gas fuel-cell project with carbon capture and storage. Google has not disclosed the facility's capacity, though earlier reports put the site at up to 2.7 GW.\n\nThe announcement comes amid local resistance to AI infrastructure: a University of Wyoming poll found only 30% of residents support allowing more large AI data centers, and 40 of 41 data-center ballot measures voted on this week went against projects."}}
