Through this partnership, Hypertec Cloud will access more than 480MW of power throughout select Potentia data center locations across North America. These data center campuses are engineered to support the most demanding AI applications while maximizing uptime and minimizing electrical grid and environmental impact. With Potentia's facilities, Hypertec Cloud has secured the required capacity and scale to meet the computing infrastructure requirements of some of the largest AI installations in the area. 

"We are thrilled to partner with Potentia to support the next phase of our AI Cloud expansion," said Jonathan Ahdoot, President of Hypertec Cloud. "This partnership enables us to provide our clients with a staggering combined data center capacity of more than 600 MW in 2025 at unparalleled deployment times while delivering superior cluster performance, reliability, and environmental responsibility. Together with Potentia, we're setting new standards for AI Cloud efficiency and scalability." 

Potentia data center campuses are purpose-built to complement Independent System Operators (ISOs) and host utilities' long-term power usage expectations. They exhibit attractive load profiles through autonomous capabilities for load smoothing, thereby creating a more manageable and dynamic environment for the AI power profile and its impact on electric grids. Potentia's campuses utilize advanced energy-efficient cooling technologies, including direct-to-chip liquid and immersion. These innovations lead to industry-leading Power Utilization Effectiveness (PUE) and Power Capacity Effectiveness (PCE) metrics.  Additionally, the heat waste from its data centers is repurposed to energize greenhouses and nearby industrial processes, further enhancing efficiencies of scale. A pioneer in Reserve Power Requests ("RPRs"), Potentia provides tenants the day-ahead option of accessing additional capacity for infrequent needs such as overclocking or portfolio-level carbon mitigation, further optimizing the current day expectations of operational conduct within the interconnect.

This commitment to sustainability aligns with Hypertec Cloud's mission to offer responsible, eco-conscious AI cloud solutions.  "We're excited to partner with Hypertec Cloud in delivering AI Cloud infrastructure that's both high-performance and sustainable," said Rich McCrea, CEO of Potentia.
