British Columbia opens bidding for AI/data centers to access 400 MW of power, prioritizing economic, environmental, and community benefits.
British Columbia is launching a competitive process for AI and data center projects to access up to 400 megawatts of electricity over two years, aiming to manage rising demand projected to grow by at least 15% by 2030.
The system, open to new projects starting March 18, prioritizes those with strong economic, environmental, and community benefits.
Existing developments are exempt.
The move follows concerns over grid strain and rising electricity costs in U.S. states with heavy data center use.
It does not apply to traditional industries like LNG, forestry, or mining.
Applications close March 18, with results expected in late summer or early fall.
