Nadia Partners’ infrastructure collective today announces the origination of Beacon AI Centers, a pioneering data center development company redefining data center development to meet the growing demands of the AI era.

Focusing on the power and efficiency needs of hyperscaler digital infrastructure, Beacon is poised to address critical bottlenecks in the North American data center market, ensuring businesses can keep pace with AI-driven innovation. With an ambitious roadmap, the company will bring 1.8 GW of capacity for hyperscalers, with a total pipeline of 3.8GW, and is developing several cutting-edge AI data center shell developments to come online across Alberta by 2027. Unlike traditional developers prioritizing land acquisition, Beacon takes an energy-first approach, securing scalable and sustainable power solutions to support its cutting-edge facilities.

Alberta has the potential to be one of the world’s largest and fastest-growing data center markets, driven by rising demand for AI technologies. Beacon’s strategic focus on energy availability and adaptability ensures it can deliver viable solutions for hyperscaler customers. According to Blackstone, the United States must double its power grid’s capacity over the next decade years to keep up with demand.

The rapid development of AI technologies requires data centers that are flexible, modular, and fast to deploy. Traditional custom-built facilities, with construction cycles of 24 months or more, can no longer keep up with the six-month depreciation cycle of AI chips and machines.

Beacon’s powered shell data centers are designed to address this gap, providing hyperscalers with scalable infrastructure that can be quickly outfitted with the latest technology. This approach enables customers to maximize the value of their compute power while preparing for future advancements.

Beacon’s vision for cutting-edge data center infrastructure is brought to life by a team with unparalleled expertise and a proven track record in building and scaling large infrastructure projects. The company was originated by Nadia Partners. 

Nadia Partners is a company originator dedicated to rapidly scaling solutions to two of society’s most pressing problems: the growing demand for AI and the energy transition. To date, Nadia Partners has originated AI companies including Lockchain, Talli, Hatz, and AI One, as well as energy infrastructure projects Dromore Energy and Beacon AI Centers.
