Red Deer County announced a land purchase offer for Lot 24 and a required rezoning process for an estimated $300 million AI research lab.
Why it matters: A public hearing and developer open house are expected. Rezoning would not itself approve the data centre; power, water, and noise details remain unverified.
View project →FingerMotion announced an agreement executed September 30, 2026, with 60 days of due diligence and closing scheduled after conditions are waived. Its revised concept proposes 3 MW of grid supply and 3 MW of on-site gas generation.
Why it matters: The new design replaces the earlier 9.9 MW concept. A purchase agreement and proposed power mix do not establish completed ownership, permits, or operation.
View project →Visit the How It All Works section to understand grid connections, behind-the-meter generation, tethered generation, and temporary bridging. Question-mark help explains relevant power, cooling, water, approval, and evidence terms within profiles and expanded listings.
Why it matters: Readers can check what a term means without leaving the project. On-site generation does not necessarily mean off-grid, and a closed cooling loop does not establish zero water use.
Visit How It All Works →ADCW corrected the listing after reviewing the August 22, 2025 Tribunal decision, which revoked approval of the Bitcoin-mining use while preserving the power-generation approval with revised conditions.
Why it matters: This is a correction based on an older decision, not a new September ruling. The proposal is now Inactive; the preserved 9.9 MW power component does not authorize data processing or establish operation.
