US data center developer, Prometheus Hyperscale, has signed a partnership agreement to power its Wyoming data center with a natural gas power solution tied to carbon removal credits. The agreement will see the deployment of a natural gas power solution at its 1.2GW hyperscale data center campus in Evanston, Wyoming. According to the company’s website, phase one of the data center is already underway, with facilities expected to come online by 2026.
The credits are expected to be generated through the capture of biogenic carbon dioxide from various facilities across the Rockies and transporting liquid CO2 to Frontier's carbon sequestration facility in Southwestern Wyoming. The date when Prometheus will begin purchasing the credits was not disclosed. DCD has reached out to the company for clarification.
"This partnership represents an unprecedented opportunity to bridge the gap to a net-zero future using local resources," said Trenton Thornock, Prometheus Hyperscale founder and CEO. "Wyoming wins together when we leverage our natural resources and innovative spirit. PureWest's verified low-carbon natural gas and Frontier's advanced carbon capture and storage solutions enable us to build sustainable, next-generation data centers for the age of AI."
