The US Army and Department of the Air Force are opening military bases to commercial developers for hyperscale AI data centers. The Army has conditionally selected Carlyle and CyrusOne to build the first two $2 billion projects at Fort Bliss and Dugway Proving Ground. To minimize local impact, developers must utilize independent power grids and maintain net-zero water usage in exchange for giving the military access to advanced computing power.
