Sioux Falls Technology Park - Bldg 3

Gemini Data Center SD LLC is a developer proposing a significant data center project in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. The 164-acre site, acquired in late 2023, has received rezoning approval for light industrial use, paving the way for potential hyperscale, AI, or neocould facilities. The project is contingent on legislative action that could provide a 50-year sales tax exemption on IT equipment and software for qualifying data centers, aiming to level the playing field with other states offering similar incentives. Gemini Data Center SD LLC is the developer, not the operator, and is actively working on multiple data center projects. The site is designed to support a 500-megawatt data center, with Gemini bearing the costs for a new substation and Xcel Energy infrastructure upgrades. Water usage will be limited to domestic purposes, and the facility plans to implement a closed-loop cooling system to minimize consumption. Setback requirements and conservation land are also part of the development plan.
