NEWS ROUNDUP

DEVELOPMENT: 506-acre data center proposed outside Tulsa. A massive data center development, codenamed Project Clydesdale, is in the early planning stages just north of Tulsa, Oklahoma. According to a zoning application, developers are seeking to rezone 506 acres of agricultural land to industrial use to accommodate the project. Details about Project Clydesdale remain limited, but the scale of the land suggests a large-scale, hyperscale-style campus, possibly similar in scope to other recent mega data center projects.

DEVELOPMENT: Google proposes $10 billion campus in Arkansas. A five-building data center campus is in the works in West Memphis, Arkansas, and local reports strongly suggest that Google may be the company behind the project. Operating under the name Groot, the developer has submitted plans for the campus—dubbed Project Pyramid—to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for environmental review. The proposed site spans 1,178 acres. Approximately 580 acres will host the main campus, which will include five hyperscale data centers and an on-site substation. While Google has not officially confirmed involvement, BizJournal, citing multiple sources, reports that the tech giant is indeed behind Groot. The company is known to use shell entities during land acquisition and permitting phases, a strategy it has employed in past data center developments.

ACQUISITION: Switch buys more land near Las Vegas. Switch has quietly expanded its landholdings with a $15 million purchase of a 7-acre site near its existing Core Campus. According to property records, the deal for the land closed in late April. The newly acquired parcel sits adjacent to several existing Switch-operated data centers, potentially signaling future expansion plans for the company’s already vast Las Vegas footprint.

EXPANSION: DataVolt to spend $20 billion on US data centers. DataVolt has pledged $20 billion for US digital infrastructure. The announcement, made during the U.S.-Saudi Investment Forum in Riyadh, marks DataVolt’s first entry into the U.S. market. A subsidiary of Vision Invest, the company is reportedly planning to power its future U.S. data centers using renewable energy and green hydrogen. While specific project locations remain undisclosed, DataVolt also struck a separate $20B supply deal with Supermicro, which will furnish GPU systems and supporting infrastructure for both U.S. and Saudi campuses.

ENERGY: Google buys 600MW of solar power to fuel data center growth. Google has signed a deal for 600MW of solar power from developer EnergyRE. The power purchase agreement includes solar-plus-storage projects located in South Carolina, part of EnergyRe’s 16-gigawatt development pipeline. While individual projects from the developer typically range from 60 to 75 MW, the overall deal represents a significant leap toward Google’s ambitious goal of 24/7 carbon-free energy by 2030.
