A Microsoft-backed data center developer says it can expand the scope of America’s artificial intelligence buildout with a new fleet of megawatt-scale modular data centers that can draw on stranded energy resources.
Armada on Thursday announced the launch of Leviathan, a unit that can be set up in just weeks and can be deployed in remote environments. That means the centers can be used for “edge” cases in fields like defense and energy.
Crucially, said Armada CEO Dan Wright, the units can also draw on power assets that otherwise wouldn’t be used on the grid.

“Just in the U.S. there’s a massive amount of land that’s not being used,” Wright said in a briefing with reporters Wednesday. “And a lot of that land has energy.”
