Status: Approved / Contracted Framework Phase | Location: Cheyenne, US
Enbridge Inc. has finalized the $1.2 billion “Cowboy Project” in Cheyenne, Wyoming, a major clean energy infrastructure development designed to support Meta Platforms’ expanding hyperscale data center operations and address growing power availability challenges driven by AI and cloud computing demand. The project combines a 365 MW solar energy facility with a 1,600 MWh battery energy storage system, creating a highly advanced behind-the-meter power solution capable of delivering stable, dispatchable electricity while reducing strain on the public utility grid. By capturing solar energy during the day and storing it for use during peak demand periods, the Cowboy Project helps manage the intense and fluctuating energy loads associated with generative AI and hyperscale cloud workloads. The development strengthens operational reliability for Meta’s facilities while advancing sustainability goals through large-scale renewable energy integration. It also reflects the increasing collaboration between energy infrastructure providers and technology companies as demand for resilient, low-carbon power solutions accelerates across North America’s rapidly expanding data center sector.
