About Us
The Terra data center utilizes Bloom Energy solid oxide fuel cells fed by dual, underground natural gas lines delivering 99.999% reliability removing legacy UPS and generators. The design leverages Bloom’s heat capture system to power absorption chillers cutting data center cooling power needs by more than 70%. The data center leverages Bloom’s integrated super-capacitor design to accommodate dynamic AI workload profiles for densities exceeding 1MW per rack with native 400+/- DC power direct to the racks. The result is a super dense, super efficient AI factory that is designed to handle any rack of any density at any time. Terra is on schedule for delivery of the first 51MW of IT capacity by Q2/2027 with additional 51MW blocks delivered every quarter thereafter.
Terra is building one of the largest, off-grid, near Net-Zero Carbon Data Centers in the heart of Silicon Valley. The project leverages Bloom Energy for on-site power generation with a fully integrated carbon capture system. It is supported by California Governor, Gavin Newsom, San Jose Mayor, Matt Mahan, PG&E CEO, Patricia Poppe, and Bloom Energy CEO, KR Sridhar.
Due to the unprecedented demand from AI, there is less than 5% available data center capacity in all of Northern California and a 5+ year wait time for additional power from PG&E or SVP. This fully entitled, 18 acre site is zoned for data centers and is exempt from CEC jurisdiction with phase one delivering 99MW of on-site power in less than 24 months with line of sight for two additional 99MW expansions.
The Terra data center utilizes Bloom Energy solid oxide fuel cells fed by dual, underground natural gas lines delivering 99.999% uptime without traditional UPS or generators. The site leverages Bloom’s integrated super-capacitor design to accommodate dynamic AI workload profiles with densities exceeding 130KW per rack. The carbon capture system delivers 99%+ pure CO2 used in the on-site greenhouse to grow food for the local community and in liquid form for sale or sequestration. The site also leverages Bloom’s heat capture system to power absorption chillers cutting the power needed to cool the data center by more than 50%. Terra is on schedule for delivery of the first 33MW of capacity by August 2026 with additional 33MW blocks delivered every quarter thereafter.
