Wyoming-based Green House Data announced Tuesday that it will begin work next year on a $35 million wind-powered data center in southeast Cheyenne. The 25,000-square-foot data center, which will be built next to the company’s existing data center, will be paid for in part with $1.5 million in state grants, making it the first project to receive funding from the Wyoming Business Council’s new data center incentive program. Up to 25 jobs will be created when the data center is completed in 2013. Unlike other data centers in Wyoming, which are built to serve a single company, Green House Data, founded in Cheyenne in 2007, rents out server and computer storage space to companies such as the National Outdoor Leadership School in Lander and New Belgium Brewery in Fort Collins, Colo.
