Technologies New Energy (TNE) has partnered with Data District to support the development of AI-ready data centers in Alberta, Canada. According to the partners, the data centers will be designed to support advanced computing workloads, including high-density AI applications.

Julio Perez, chief executive officer of TNE, said: “Our agreement with Data District represents a major step forward in TNE’s strategy to accelerate the build-out of energy and infrastructure critical to the global AI and data center economy. Power availability is emerging as the key constraint for AI growth, particularly for AI workloads running on Nvidia hardware, and our scalable generation capability can support the rapid rollout of high-density data center infrastructure.

Under the agreement, TNE will support Data District’s projects in Edmonton and Calgary across strategy, supply chain, and delivery, with a focus on power generation, energy flexibility, and sustainability.


Carlos Caldas, CEO of Data District, added: “The agreement with TNE represents a major step forward in our ambition to position Data District as a reference platform at the intersection of clean power and high-performance digital infrastructure. With TNE and Alcral AG, we are building a long-term, scalable ecosystem designed to attract world-class computing workloads and to anchor sustainable investment, employment, and innovation in the region.”
