About Green Data Centers

Green Data Centers’ mission is to sustainably power the digital world. Green Data Centers develops and plans to construct renewable energy generation, storage assets and hyperscale data centers.   These assets are in high demand due to the increasing creation and utilization of digital data, combined with the exponential growth in Artificial Intelligence, which is driving the need for trillion-dollar data centers to support this rapid expansion.¹ It has been projected that energy consumption of the largest AI training cluster will grow to consume 20% of the U.S. electricity production by the end of the decade, driven by the exponential increase in compute power.² The need for power, land, and infrastructure is expected to become a significant constraint in the development of these trillion-dollar AI clusters.³

Green Data Centers creates value through:

• Renewable Generation: Solar and wind power generation can produce long term revenue from selling power to the grid and can offer low-cost renewable energy for data center use.
• Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS): Green Data Centers is developing a portfolio of BESS projects that will produce revenue from energy arbitrage and grid services. BESS projects buy low priced energy during off peak, low demand hours and sell for a profit during peak priced hours.
• Data Centers: Green Data Centers develops powered-land, powered-shells or fully operational wholesale data centers.

Green Data Centers seeks to pair energy generation, storage and data centers presenting a major competitive advantage which results in higher arbitrage for energy storage and lower cost of power for data centers.

Green Data Centers development pipeline includes the following, which has the potential for nearby data center development:

250MW West Texas BESS Project

Green Data Centers has entered into a purchase agreement to acquire land for a 250MW/1000MWh BESS project at a grid node with significant renewable energy variability. The project, subject to final permitting, has a projected CAPEX of $375 million USD and projected gross revenues from third party modelling in excess of $100 million USD. Green Data Centers anticipates selecting an EPC contractor and battery manufacturer in early 2025, with project completion and revenue planned in 2026.

Project Financing

Green Data Centers plans to finance its project pipeline on a non-recourse basis with a combination of equity, debt and tax credits. Under the Inflation Reduction Act, Investment Tax Credits (ITCs) in America which can provide up to 30% of CAPEX plus an additional 10% for each: domestic US content, historical hydrocarbon development area (an energy community) or low-income communities. The ITCs are typically sold to large banks and other investors at commercial operation of the project, thereby contributing materially to the overall project capital stack.

Green Data Centers anticipates raising project equity optimally between private equity funds participating at the project level, green bonds or private placements in the parent company. Discussions are currently underway with substantial equity providers and partners.
