Alberta is pitching its abundant natural gas reserves to attract C$100 billion in data center investment to Canada. The province aims to host 90% of the country’s nearly 100 planned hyperscale facilities, which require at least 50 megawatts of capacity. This strategy leverages Alberta's position as the source of 60% of the natural gas in the world's fifth-largest producing nation.
