This is a source-attributed discovery row. It can help you find a place and its citations; it is not a DataCenterData finding that the facility is distinct or currently operating.
Reported geography

Previously held pending provider-field review. The concern has not been resolved by an independent source review for this captured edition; the field remains withheld. The upstream row remains attributed below, but this value is not repeated as site capacity.
What the source record says
High-performance computing data center on INL's Research and Education Campus (REC) in Idaho Falls -- distinct from INL's much larger remote desert 'Site' reservation (see the separate Aalo Atomics record in this batch). Houses DOE/INL supercomputers including Sawtooth, Hoodoo, and Bitterroot, supporting nuclear-energy modeling/simulation, materials science, and data science research; remote access is provided to Idaho university researchers via the Idaho Regional Optical Network. Built alongside the adjacent Cybercore Integration Center (80,979 sq ft) as part of a combined ~148,000 sq ft project; C3 itself is variously reported as 66,520 sq ft (general contractor JE Dunn) and 73,000 sq ft (engineering subconsultant AEI), and its power capacity is similarly inconsistent between fetched sources -- JE Dunn describes an '8MW High Performance Computing (HPC) Data Center with 2MW of redundancy' and a 'Day 1 installation of 4MW capacity,' while AEI's page states '1.5 MW total power'; these were not reconciled and no capacityMw field is recorded here pending a source that resolves the discrepancy. Completed circa 2022 per JE Dunn's project metadata. No exact street address was given in either source fetched.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.

Sources and attribution
These sources are listed for the whole row. Unless a figure links to its own source, the provider does not mark which one gave it, so a figure may not appear in every source.

Compute Atlas 1.34.1 with retained prior rows and publication holds. This is a DataCenterData composite, not an unmodified publisher edition. This row uses the captured source from 1.34.1, source as of 2026-10-14T20:40:52.293Z.
That does not mean the row is wrong, and it does not mean no reviewed record exists for the same place. A link is added only when an identifier or source establishes the match.
