Google said it was building its first data center in Wyoming with a stated investment of $17 billion. The announcement describes a project investment, not an amount confirmed as already spent or a completed financing transaction.

Named partners include Tallgrass Energy, Black Hills Energy, American Electric Power (AEP), and Related Digital. Google also said Bloom Energy would manufacture the project’s fuel cells in the United States.

A separate daily summary in the supplied messages describes 702 MW of fuel cells, carbon capture, and Google bearing the full electricity costs. The 702-MW figure refers to fuel-cell power capacity, not disclosed critical information-technology load, GPU capacity, or commissioned data-center capacity; the supplied reports give no completion date.
