Nscale signs 1.35GW Microsoft LOI for a West Virginia AI campus
"This collaboration with Microsoft marks a pivotal milestone both for Nscale and the development of the Monarch Campus. By integrating our specialized AI infrastructure with Microsoft's global platform, we are creating a foundation for innovation that can scale alongside the most ambitious AI models in the world."
"Nscale has signed a letter of intent with Microsoft to provide 1.35 gigawatts of AI compute capacity at a new campus in Mason County, West Virginia, deploying NVIDIA's next-generation Vera Rubin NVL72 GPUs at what it describes as the first large-scale commercial rollout of the Vera Rubin DSX AI Factory reference architecture."
Nscale signed a letter of intent with Microsoft to provide 1.35 gigawatts of AI compute capacity at the Monarch Compute Campus in Mason County, West Virginia. The deployment features approximately 430,000 NVIDIA Vera Rubin NVL72 GPUs, representing the first large-scale commercial rollout of the Vera Rubin DSX AI Factory reference architecture. The 2,250-acre campus is designated as the first state-certified AI microgrid in the United States with scalable power potential exceeding eight gigawatts. Deliveries begin in late 2027 across multiple phases. The infrastructure combines a multi-year compute services agreement with a long-term data centre lease. Caterpillar natural gas generators will provide 2GW of power by H1 2028.
