Ellendale datacenter power outage began

Checked on September 18, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.

The filing gives the outage dates and says the provider was doing stability upgrades while the outage continued. It does not say those upgrades caused the outage to begin; it only ties them to why the outage was still ongoing.

Confirmed in the source:

• A power outage at the Ellendale datacenter began on January 18, 2024
• The outage became complete by January 19, 2024
• The electricity provider was performing upgrades to ensure stability of the electrical supply

We could not confirm this from the cited source:

• The electricity provider's upgrades caused the outage

That does not mean it is false — only that this source does not establish it, as of the date above. If we find a source that settles it, we will re-check and update this page.
