Prometheus Hyperscale is planning a multi-million dollar digital campus near Casper, Wyoming, with a target capacity of 1.5 gigawatts by 2028. The project intends to use closed-loop liquid cooling to minimize water consumption and will initially rely on natural gas reciprocating engines for power due to local grid constraints. The development includes partnerships with carbon capture firms Spiritus and Casper Carbon Capture. While the project promises high-tech jobs and community benefit agreements, environmental advocates have raised concerns regarding the emissions impact of using natural gas to power the massive computing load.
