Alamosa County approves small-scale data center amid Valley-wide concerns

Alamosa County commissioners have approved a special use permit for a small-scale, container-based data center near Hooper, Colorado, despite ongoing regional concerns about data center impacts. This decision comes amidst public debate and the enactment of moratoriums in neighboring San Luis Valley communities like Saguache County and South Fork. The approved project by Strata Inc. is designed to operate with air cooling and connect to existing infrastructure, aiming to minimize environmental impact.
