Lévis will host a data center of nearly $ 1 billion

The energy released by data processing would be recovered: it would heat greenhouses to produce food.

• This could produce 2,800 tonnes of berries and 80,000 tonnes of tomatoes annually, according to QScale forecasts.

The first phase of the project is financed by several actors:

• The Quebec government takes a $ 30 million stake in QScale’s share capital and lends it $ 60 million.
• Desjardins Capital is investing $ 60 million.
• Various Quebec private investors are investing a total of $ 45 million.

Hydro-Québec has entered into an agreement with QScale to supply 140 megawatts to power the treatment center.
