Hyperscale Data Dowagiac AI Data Center
Hyperscale Data ceased Bitcoin mining at its 617,000 square foot Dowagiac, Michigan facility on September 1, 2026, and is converting it for a California neocloud customer deploying 20MW in Q4 2026 with potential to scale to 52MW under a 10 year lease. It is being built, as reported August 10, 2026.
How much water it would use and who would use it have not been disclosed.
How to read this page. Every fact links to the source it rests on; a number in brackets is its place in the source list. A figure no source gives reads Not disclosed, and nothing is estimated. Where sources give different figures, each is shown with who gave it, and another source's figure never stands in for the record's own. Entries are added and never overwritten; corrections are listed under What happened.

How much power it needs, also reported: 30 MW, 2026 (The Detroit News: Hyperscale Data facility capacity is 30 megawatts of electricity, Data Center Dynamics: Facility currently operates with 30MW of capacity and company aims to expand to 340MW including 40MW of behind the meter natural gas capacity.); 20 MW, 2026 (ForkLog: The contract includes 20 MW of power, Data Center Dynamics: Customer will deploy 20MW operational in Q4 of 2026 at Dowagiac facility.); 52 MW, 2026 (Data Center Dynamics: Customer could scale up to 52MW of compute capacity at Dowagiac facility.) .
Jobs once it runs, also reported: 1,700 to 2,300 jobs, 2026 (Boothbay Register: Project would bring millions of dollars in taxes, 1,700 to 2,300 temporary construction jobs, and 100 to 200 permanent jobs) .
The developer's figure is what the company said; what a permit allows is the ceiling a permit sets; measured means observed. Water is in gallons a day or a year, whichever the source stated; a tax claim given as a range shows both ends, each linked to the source that gave it.
Still not public, and where it would show up
The record adds each the day a source gives it. Why these documents.
- Water useA state water right filing or a water supply agreement.
- Who would use itA lease announcement or a tenant named in a filing.
- Jobs and taxAn incentive agreement, a county's economic development filing or a fiscal note.
