A 1GW Campus Designed for the Future of Compute
Island Roadhouse Data Centers is developing a large-scale campus to support high-density AI, hyperscale, and enterprise workloads, with phased capacity beginning in 2030.
Purpose-built for long-term infrastructure planning, not short-term availability.
Project Overview
IRDC is developing a 1GW data center campus designed to meet the growing demand for high-density compute infrastructure.
The project is structured as a phased development, with initial capacity planned to come online beginning in 2030.
The campus is being designed to support:
Large-scale AI and GPU workloads
Hyperscale and enterprise deployments
Long-term customer expansion
Infrastructure strategies aligned with future compute demand
Campus Scale and Design
The IRDC campus is being planned as a multi-phase development capable of supporting up to 1GW of total capacity.
Key design considerations include:
Data halls sized for large-scale deployments (including 12 MW configurations)
High-density infrastructure readiness for AI and GPU workloads
Flexible campus layout to support phased expansion
Long-term operational scalability
Power and Infrastructure Strategy
The long-term viability of large-scale compute infrastructure is increasingly dependent on access to reliable power.
IRDC is being designed with a focus on:
Infrastructure aligned with durable energy availability
Reduced dependence on constrained grid capacity
Long-term power planning to support continuous operations
The goal is to provide a foundation for customers planning infrastructure over multi-decade time horizons.
Development Timeline
Current Phase: Planning, design, and customer engagement
Pre-Construction: Site preparation and final design alignment
Construction: Phased development of campus infrastructure
Initial Operations: Capacity coming online starting in 2030
Project Status
IRDC has made significant progress across key areas required to bring the campus online.
Current focus areas include:
Site positioning and development planning
Engineering and design alignment
Vendor and partner engagement
Customer offtake discussions
The project is advancing in parallel across technical, commercial, and financial tracks.
Why This Project Matters
Power constraints are real
Future compute growth will be shaped by energy availability, not just demand.
Scale requires long lead times
Large campuses cannot be delivered on short timelines, making early planning critical.
Infrastructure is becoming strategic
Organizations are beginning to treat compute capacity as a long-term strategic asset.
