Chuck DarwinAmazon Web Services (AWS) has acquired Talen Energy’s data center campus at a nuclear power station in Pennsylvania.
#Talen #Energy #Corporation this week announced it has sold its 960MW #Cumulus #data #center campus in Pennsylvania to a ‘major cloud service provider’ – listed as #Amazon in a Talen investor presentation. Amazon is yet to comment on the news.
The 1,200-acre campus draws power from Talen Energy’s neighboring 2.5GW #nuclear #power station in Luzerne County, the Susquehanna Steam Electric Station ( #SSES ).
The company broke ground in 2021 and completed the first 48MW, 300,000 square foot (28,870 sqm) hyperscale facility early last year, along with a separate #cryptomine facility.
