Data centers and the power to run them. It’s what we’ve been focusing on over the past several weeks and one of the latest examples of the need for a fuel source is in eastern New Mexico where a Canadian firm announcing a natural gas deal.
Desert Mountain Energy Corp., a firm based in Vancouver, British Columbia, announced the signing of an agreement with Roswell Information Park LLC to buy all natural gas produced by DME in the West Pecos Field.
Additionally, Roswell Information Park LLC will serve as the primary purchaser for all natural gas entering the pipeline into the Information Park, including gas not attributed to DME, for which the Company will receive management fees.
DME is collaborating closely with Sustany LLC, Roswell Information Park LLC, and relevant local, state, and federal authorities to foster job creation, long-term growth, and infrastructure enhancements in the region.
The proposed information center is initially expected to generate between 100 to 200 megawatts (MW) of power and will ramp up to in excess of 500 MW. Discussions are underway to sell excess power back into the New Mexico power grid. DME, Sustany LLC and Roswell Information Park LLC are also exploring applications for multiple state and federal infrastructure grant programs to support these initiatives.
“Currently, the construction of the Roswell Information Park, planned to begin Q1 2026, will generate new revenue streams for DME and create valuable job opportunities in New Mexico – driving long-term growth and infrastructure across the region,” said Robert Rohlfing, CEO and Executive Director of DME. “Additionally, our collaboration with Sustany LLC to explore hydrogen assets at the West Pecos Field in New Mexico underscores our commitment to advancing innovative, sustainable energy solutions.”
In Arizona, Sustany LLC continues to explore the development of the McCauley Field area and the utilization of properties currently owned by DME for the establishment of smaller data centers. These data centers aim to contribute to Arizona’s economic growth and optimize DME’s existing land holdings.
