Canadian data center operator eStruxture is to build a new facility in Calgary, Alberta.

The company this week announced plans to invest more than CA$750 million (US$540.2m) to build CAL-3, a new 90MW data center.

Slated to go live in the Fall of 2026, the data center will be located in Rocky View County, just north of Calgary. CAL-3 will be a Tier III data center able to offer rack densities of up to 125kW across multiple customizable data halls.

The company said the facility would be Alberta’s largest data center, driven by “unprecedented” demand from AI and cloud providers.

Todd Coleman, founder, president, and CEO of eStruxture, said: “CAL-3 is a significant, strategic investment, not only for eStruxture but for Alberta’s rapidly evolving digital and AI landscape. This expansion reinforces our commitment to driving the province’s digital economy forward, offering scalable and sustainable infrastructure that meets the growing demands of AI and cloud service providers. Calgary is pivotal to Canada’s tech future, and we’re proud to support its growth with this cutting-edge facility.”

Launched in 2017, eStruxture currently operates two other facilities in Calgary, and 16 in total across Canada. Announced in 2021, CAL-2 launched last year. CAL-1 was acquired from Shaw Communications in 2019.

Fengate Asset Management acquired the company earlier this year for CA$1.8 billion (US1.3bn).
