As part of the longer-term scaling at the N01 Data Center Campus, Bulk is working jointly with regional and national grid companies to add 300 MW of additional, redundant power capacity in 2026. This will allow for continued large-scale data center expansion, both for hyperscale and colocation facilities. The N01 Data Center Campus reportedly has the potential to grow beyond 1000 MW.
