Project
Planned

A new data centre warehouse proposed for a lot across from East Wellington Road in Nanaimo. It would be the largest data centre on Vancouver Island at 200,000 square feet, requiring large amounts of water for cooling. The project has been rezoned for construction by Nanaimo council, aiming to bring jobs and revenue, but faces concerns over water supply strain and power restrictions.
