- Operating (source, 3 September 2026)
- Power
- Pure DC says the campus has full planning permission and power secured for what it calls a 90MW campus.
- Cooling
- Pure DC describes a closed-loop system and an average annualised PUE of 1.29; the new building is described as closed-loop liquid cooled.
The operator's 90MW, 20MW and 70MW figures are not labelled as IT, facility or grid, so they are not entered as capacity claims. Building 1 is live and Building 2 is under construction, hence the site is shown as operating.
