Digi Power X expects Cerebras access and commissioning start in Alabama on 15 December

Digi Power X Inc. says it expects to give its tenant, Cerebras Systems, access to the first phase of its data centre campus in Columbiana, Alabama, on 15 December 2026, and to start commissioning the site's power and liquid-cooling systems the same day. The company gave the schedule in a release of 13 November, which says building work on the 15 MW first phase remains on schedule. Its quarterly report, filed the same day, says the facility was still under construction at 30 September.

According to the quarterly report, the campus is to provide an IT load of up to 40 MW in two phases: 15 MW in phase one and a conditional 25 MW in phase two. The release says work on phase two has already started and that the company is aiming to give the tenant access to it in March 2027, subject to conditions. The quarterly report gives December 2026 and March 2027 as the target dates for finishing the two phases.

Digi Power X says it signed a ten-year colocation and master services contract with Cerebras on 4 May 2026, under which it is to build, commission and run the facility, while the land and facility remain its property. The company says it is targeting direct liquid cooling and rack densities above 200 kW at its Alabama facility.
