Current canonical record
This record tracks River Run Energy Center Data Center Campus in North Dakota.
Basin Electric reported on 2026-04-09 that it and NextEra Energy Resources are exploring River Run Energy Center, a 1,450 MW combined-cycle natural gas generation facility and associated multi-gigawatt data center campus in Mercer County. The project includes both the gas generator and data center and is expected to bring over $18 billion in new investment, about 230 permanent full-time jobs, and an estimated $15 million in annual property tax revenue for Mercer County. Because the data center campus is described only as multi-gigawatt, powerCapacityMW is left null rather than recording the 1,450 MW generation plant as data center capacity.
