How we checked this
Checked on October 10, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The proxy gives the $2.7 billion, 30-year, 100-megawatt savings estimate for the efficiencies of 'our innovative designs'. It does not explicitly state that the estimate is for Polaris Forge.
Confirmed in the source:
- The cooling design efficiencies are expected to deliver cost savings of potentially $2.7 billion over 30 years for a 100-megawatt facility compared to traditional data centers
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- That the $2.7 billion savings projection applies specifically to Polaris Forge facilities, rather than to the company's data center designs generally
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.
