Montreal-based AI and hyperscale-ready data center provider eStruxture announced it will invest over CAD 750 million to build CAL-3, Alberta’s largest and most advanced data center, which is set to be operational by mid-2026.

Located near Calgary in Rocky View County, CAL-3 will provide 90 megawatts of power with energy-efficient power and cooling systems, accommodating cabinet densities of up to 125 kilowatts, making it well-suited for high-performance AI applications, GPU-as-a-Service and hyperscale cloud infrastructure. According to eStruxture, CAL-3 will also feature multiple customizable data halls and offer inter-site connectivity with the company’s existing CAL-1 and CAL-2 facilities. 

This investment is one of many reinforcing the region’s status as an up-and-coming innovation hub. CAL-3 not only expands the eStruxture’s presence in Alberta but also catalyzes the province’s economic and digital transformation. 

CEO Todd Coleman said in statement that CAL-3 represents a significant strategic investment, not just for eStruxture but also for Alberta’s rapidly evolving digital and AI landscape, as it provides scalable and sustainable infrastructure to meet the growing demands of AI and cloud service providers.
