Project Nimbus
Power for the data centers of tomorrow
Natural State Renewables is developing a gigawatt-scale, carbon-negative power campus — built for hyperscale data center needs.
OFFERING:
Colocated power generation
SCALE:
Gigawatt-scale
EMISSIONS:
Carbon-negative
Read On
Firm, clean power at the scale the next generation of computing demands.
Project Nimbus pairs bioenergy with carbon capture (BECCS) alongside high-efficiency gas generation to deliver around-the-clock, dispatchable power, while producing a net-negative carbon footprint.
CAPACITY
1 GW
2031
Gigawatt-scale campus, scaled to match hyperscale ramp.
CARBON NEGATIVE
~4 Mt/yr
CO₂ captured
Enough capture to offset the full campus footprint — and then some.
RELIABILITY
99.9%
guaranteed
Reliability engineered for maximum data center uptime.
TIME TO POWER
2028
first energization
Initial power online in 2028, ramping to full campus by 2031.
SITE READINESS
Campus-ready
for co-located DC build
Land, fiber, gas, and water – available.
— PROJECT LOCATION
In the heart of the South-Central data center corridor..
Project Nimbus sits in the middle of one of the fastest-growing data-center build zones in North America — adjacent to existing hyperscaler campuses, inside a regional gas-generation footprint measured in the tens of gigawatts.
DATA CENTER BUILDS
6 GW+ of new project announcements across hyperscalers and colos
REGIONAL GAS GENERATION CAPACITY
10–15 GW of new project announcements
— Working Together
Let’s design Nimbus together.
