Record Notes

Beacon AI Centers is a multi-site Alberta data-center development program, not a single verified facility. Beacon's May 2025 Business Wire announcement says the company is committing to an initial 4.5 GW data-center development in Alberta, with sites planned to energize as early as 2027 and a total North American pipeline exceeding 4.9 GW. Latitude Media separately frames the Alberta plan as 4.5 GW of AI data centers enabled by Alberta power availability. Public Canadian and Alberta project listings show individual proposed power/data-center projects inside the broader program, including the Indus Power proposal of about 1,494 MW to support a new data centre and the Beacon Foothills AI Data Center Hub with 400 MW of onsite power generation. ADCI keeps 4,500 MW as operator-disclosed program capacity across Alberta sites, not a single-facility IT-load value.
