This is a source-attributed discovery row. It can help you find a place and its citations; it is not a DataCenterData finding that the facility is distinct or currently operating.

What the source record says
Capacity is disputed between the two sources fetched this run and is deliberately omitted from capacityMw rather than guessed: Baxtel states an initial 2MW phase scaling to 10MW; KOTA TV separately reports 15MW for the same project (also citing a 1.3 PUE design target vs. an industry average of 1.8-2.0). Tier 3 edge computing facility, greenfield, an initial ~30,000 sq ft building on a 1-acre footprint within a 10-acre site, expandable to five data halls across 7 acres. Construction was reported (both sources) to begin late summer 2026 with a roughly 14-month build targeting a 2027 opening; no source checked this run (2026-09-13) confirms construction has actually started. Coordinate is an OSM Nominatim road-level geocode of S Highway 79, Rapid City -- not a confirmed parcel.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
