Cordova Electric Data Center

Greensparc’s modular hydro plant–powered data center transforms remote community’s potential for growth.
Like other remote and rural areas, Cordova, Alaska, had to rely on data centers located hundreds of miles away for their energy, cloud, and high-speed data processing services. The community was challenged by limited access, inclement weather that disrupts service, and the risks of being left behind in a technologically driven global economy.
In the spring of 2024, Greesparc, in partnership with Cordova Electric Cooperative (CEC), provided a reliable and energy-efficient solution locally when it deployed its first modular 150-kW data center. Operational in just 90 days, it is faster, cheaper, and greener than traditional infrastructures. As it is powered—and cooled—by the Humpback Creek Hydro Facility’s renewable energy, it is 100% carbon-free.
This data center bridges the digital divide by empowering the expansion of healthcare, educational, and employment opportunities for Cordova’s residents. The potential for this collaboration, said CEC’s CEO Clay Koplin, is “transformational.”
