WV DEP Reviews Gas Pipe Permits for Data Center in Mason County

In early May, MDN brought you details about a proposed NSCALE data center project in Mason County, WV (see Mason County, WV Data Center: 3 Bldgs, 984 NatGas, Diesel Engines). The owners filed an application (on April 20) for a construction permit. The first phase of the project will be a 2.16-gigawatt, natural gas-fired off-grid data center. It's going to produce its own electricity, so pipelines are needed to transport gas to the site. The West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection (WVDEP) is currently reviewing a construction permit for the pipelines that will flow gas to the data center.
