Analyst Notes

500MW six-site target is ambition, not committed capacity: first 7MW Groq-equipped Kamloops site live June 2025, 7MW Merritt site and 26MW Thompson Rivers University facility (2026) plus second 26MW Kamloops facility (2027) committed; two further ~400MW-combined sites only 'in advanced planning'. Bloomberg reported (2026-06-18) BCE teaming with Cohere on a Canada AI data center, and (2026-03-16) CoreWeave/BCE backing a large western-Canada facility — expansion of this fabric.
