Bell Canada to build gas power for Saskatchewan data centre project
Original: ‘ Bell Canada and the provincial government have already confirmed the initial 300 megawatts will be supplied by SaskPow
Bell Canada and the Saskatchewan government have confirmed that the initial 300 megawatts for a major power project will come from Crown utility SaskPower. Bell Canada will then be responsible for delivering the remaining 900 megawatts by constructing its own gas-powered generation system, a significant step for the telecom company into energy infrastructure.
Why now: A telecom giant committing to build its own large-scale gas generation raises questions about energy supply for data infrastructure.
