Proposed-site record

Stak Energy Data Center

Alaska DNR's May 12, 2026 preliminary decision documents a proposed 715.4-acre state-land lease for STAK's industrial energy campus, including modular HPC buildings and 1–3 GW of behind-the-meter natural-gas generation. The lease, generation, construction timeline, water, and workload capacity remain subject to unresolved approvals and evidence gaps.

Compute Workload

This panel tracks what the facility is for without assuming that every project is AI training, inference, or cloud capacity.

Undisclosed / unknownUnknown

No source-backed workload, customer, hardware, or training/inference allocation is attached to this record yet.

Workload classification remains unknown in the reviewed record.

Public Money

No public funding record attached yet. Local subsidy, tax-abatement, land, bond, and utility records need follow-up.

Water

Source reviewed September 9, 2026: Alaska DNR's May 12, 2026 preliminary decision describes a proposed 715.4-acre lease area and associated industrial infrastructure but does not establish a water source, withdrawal quantity, cooling-water use, or wastewater capacity.

Power

Source reviewed September 9, 2026: Alaska DNR's May 12, 2026 preliminary decision says the proposed STAK Energy Campus would include natural-gas generation designed for 1–3 GW, with all generated electricity consumed onsite by HPC facilities in a fully integrated behind-the-meter configuration and no utility-grid interconnection. The dataset's 3,000 MW remains proposed generation/project context, not confirmed energized or IT-load capacity.
