Ameresco Partners with CyrusOne to Develop Offgrid AI Data Center

US energy solutions provider Ameresco has partnered with the US Navy and data center developer CyrusOne to develop a 100MW data center at Naval Air Station (NAS) Lemoore, California. The facility will be colocated with a dedicated on-site energy generation facility built by Ameresco, forming a microgrid system that includes engine generators, control systems, and infrastructure upgrades. 

“This initiative directly supports our national priorities in AI and energy dominance,” said NAS Lemoore executive officer captain Jeffry Findlay. “By enabling secure, reliable power and compute infrastructure at NAS Lemoore, we’re strengthening our ability to support critical missions and ensure operational continuity for those who serve.”

“The facility at NAS Lemoore will provide our federal customers with the secure, on-premise computing solution they need—paired with the resilience of onsite energy supply,” said John Hatem, EVP and CEO of CyrusOne. “Data centers are foundational to our information economy and critical to maintaining U.S. leadership in technological innovation, especially in AI. We’re proud to deliver this solution through our alliance with Ameresco.”
