True dual-source power. Liquid cooling. Five diverse fiber routes.
Built for AI companies that can't compromise on infrastructure.
1MW MINIMUM · $200/kW/MO ALL-IN
Both sources deliver simultaneously — always.
- Two independent utility substations
- Two 2,500 kVA transformers
- Geographically separate feeds
- A-side switchgear — no shared components with B-side
- Three 2.5MW Cummins gensets with Stamford alternators
- Continuous operation — not standby
- N+2 redundancy with one unit in maintenance rotation
- Deep Sea controls managing paralleled output
Each of 40 cabinets receives full-load capacity independently from both sources simultaneously. Zero transfer events at cabinet level. Target uptime: 99.999%+.
The climate is the cooling system.
Eight months of free air cooling annually (October through May). Adiabatic fluid coolers with evaporative assist only during summer months — the high desert's 20–35% relative humidity keeps efficiency high even then.
Direct-to-chip liquid cooling supporting full NVIDIA NVL72 density at 120kW per cabinet. Every position is GPU-ready from day one. No mechanical chiller plant or water tower during cool months.
Five routes across two physically separate entrances.
West wall and south wall are geographically separate road frontages with independent fiber entry points. Dedicated 4" HDPE conduit to both. Isolated meet-me room with dedicated power, cooling, and cross-connects.
Fully carrier-neutral. Dark fiber interconnects to both IDACORE Boise and IDACORE North, giving East tenants access to the full carrier ecosystem across all three locations.

| Phase | IT Load | Cabinets | Cumulative | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 5MW | 40 | 5MW | Pre-leasing — accepting LOIs |
| 2 | +5MW | 80 | 10MW | On demand |
| 3 | +5MW | 120 | 15MW | On demand |
| 4 | +5MW | 160 | 20MW | On demand |
All phases share fiber infrastructure and meet-me room. Each phase operates as an independent 5MW module with dedicated building, power, and cooling.
1MW minimum. $200/kW/month, all-in.
Power is included at $200/kW/month — no pass-through billing, no variable rate exposure. Pacific Northwest generation economics make this possible; the 50/50 grid/gas split keeps costs stable regardless of utility rate changes.

What is true 2N power redundancy?
True 2N means two completely independent power sources, each sized to carry the full load simultaneously — not just a standby generator. IDACORE East uses utility grid (A-side, two independent substations) and three Cummins natural gas generators running continuously (B-side). Each of the 40 cabinets receives full-load capacity from both sources at all times with zero transfer events.
How much does AI colocation cost at IDACORE East?
$200/kW/month, all-in. Power is included — no variable pass-through billing or utility rate exposure. Minimum commitment is 1MW. At 1MW, total monthly cost is approximately $200,000, inclusive of power, cooling, and connectivity infrastructure.
What GPU cooling is available at IDACORE East?
Direct-to-chip liquid cooling at 120kW per cabinet, rated for full NVIDIA NVL72 density. All 40 Phase 1 cabinet positions are GPU-ready from day one. No derating required for dense AI workloads.
When will IDACORE East open?
Currently accepting Letters of Intent (LOIs) for Phase 1. Phase 1 delivers 5MW of IT load across 40 cabinets. Target delivery is Q4 2026.
What fiber connectivity does IDACORE East have?
Five diverse fiber routes across two physically separate entrances (west and south walls), each with independent 4-inch HDPE conduit. Fully carrier-neutral with a dedicated, isolated meet-me room. Dark fiber interconnects available to IDACORE Boise and North.
Is IDACORE East suitable for AI and HPC workloads?
Yes. Purpose-built for GPU-dense AI and HPC: 120kW/cabinet liquid cooling, true 2N power with no transfer events, target PUE ~1.10, and five diverse fiber routes — at $200/kW/month with power included.
What is the total capacity at IDACORE East?
A four-phase build-out totaling 20MW of IT load across 160 cabinets. Phase 1 is 5MW across 40 cabinets. Each phase is an independent 5MW module with dedicated power and cooling.
What is the PUE at IDACORE East?
Target PUE ~1.10, enabled by eight months of free air cooling annually (October through May). Adiabatic fluid coolers with evaporative assist during summer months — the high-desert climate averages 20–35% relative humidity.
