After delaying a decision, Box Elder County is set to vote on a hyperscale data center project. Here’s what we know.

Box Elder County commissioners are set to vote on the "Stratos Project," a proposed hyperscale data center and energy campus backed by MIDA and O'Leary Digital. The project, planned for Hansel Valley, faces significant debate over its substantial water and electricity demands, primarily from natural gas. Opponents have raised environmental concerns and water scarcity issues, while proponents highlight economic benefits and military infrastructure funding.

Box Elder County delays vote on MIDA data center project, citing transparency concerns

Box Elder County officials have delayed a vote on the "Stratos" hyperscale data center project, citing a lack of transparency from the state's Military Installation Development Authority (MIDA) and developers. The decision was postponed after local officials and 80 protestors raised concerns about the project's massive scale, environmental impacts, and MIDA's unique authority. County leaders are demanding more public input and information before proceeding with the Kevin O’Leary Digital-backed development.
