NextEra Energy, Brookfield and other companies are developing a $100 billion data center campus at a former uranium enrichment site in Paducah, Kentucky, according to a report.
A source said NextEra Energy, the largest US utility, would deliver 2 GW of natural gas-fired power and 2.6 GW of battery storage capacity to support the data center.
Brookfield would own and operate the 1.8 GW campus, a source said.
The campus would be located on the US Department of Energy's Paducah Site, which was constructed in 1952 to produce enriched uranium but was later shuttered, according to a source.
NextEra said the project fulfills the Trump administration's 'Ratepayer Protection Pledge,' which seeks to ensure that companies building and using data centers pay above and beyond normal rates so that costs are not passed on to average households.
The project is expected to be completed by 2032, a source said.
