Project Nimbus
Power for the AI era
Natural State Renewables is developing a gigawatt-scale, carbon-negative power campus — built for hyperscale data center needs.
OFFERING:
Colocated power generation
SCALE:
Gigawatt-scale
EMISSIONS:
Carbon-negative
Reliable, clean power to meet the next generation of computing demands
Project Nimbus pairs bioenergy with carbon capture (BECCS) alongside high-efficiency gas generation to deliver around-the-clock, dispatchable power, while producing a net-negative carbon footprint.
CAPACITY
1 GW
2031
Gigawatt-scale campus, scaled to match hyperscale ramp.
RELIABILITY
99.9%
guaranteed
Reliability engineered for maximum data center uptime.
TIME TO POWER
2028
first energization
Initial 150-200MW power online in 2028, ramping to full scale by 2031.
SITE READINESS
Campus-ready
for co-located DC build
Land, fiber, gas, and water – available.
CARBON NEGATIVE
~4 Mt/yr
CO₂ captured
More than enough capture to offset the full campus emissions footprint.
Carbon sequestered on site, eliminating need for pipeline transport.
LOGISTICS
Rail access
direct to site
Direct rail for heavy equipment and bulk materials transport allowing for faster builds, lower emissions.
— PROJECT LOCATION
In the heart of the South-Central data center corridor
Project Nimbus sits in the middle of one of the fastest-growing data-center build zones in North America — adjacent to existing hyperscaler campuses, inside a regional gas-generation footprint measured in the tens of gigawatts.
REGIONAL GAS GENERATION CAPACITY
10–15 GW of new project announcements
DATA CENTER BUILDS
6 GW+ of new project announcements across hyperscalers and colos
