ValorC3 to develop second data center in Boise, Idaho

Company adding 10MW in Gem State.


ValorC3 Data Centers is to develop a new data center in Boise, Idaho.


The company this week announced plans to break ground on its second facility in the city.


The new data center will offer 10MW of capacity and is expected to go live in 2027. Offering both air and liquid-cooling capabilities, it will take the company’s capacity in Boise to 12MW. The location of the new facility hasn’t been shared.


“Boise continues to stand out as a strategic location because of its access to existing connectivity, power, and talent, making it a great place for ValorC3 to expand,” said Jim Buie, CEO of ValorC3 Data Centers. “We’re committed to partnering with enterprises in Boise and across the Northwest to meet their growing needs for AI-ready infrastructure. This facility will help us deliver on that promise.”


CVC DIF-owned ValorC3 – previously known as Tonaquint – owns and operates data centers in St. George, Utah; Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; and Boise, Idaho.


The company entered the Boise market in 2020 with the acquisition of Fiberpipe Data Centers; the 2MW, 45,600 sq ft (4,250 sqm) building, located at 10215 W Emerald Street, was constructed in 1999.


ValorC3 was founded in 2008 in Utah as a subsidiary of local developer Kay H. Traveller; DIF Capital Partners (now CVC DIF) acquired the company at the start of 2023.


The company took over its facility in Oklahoma City with the acquisition of EdgeX Data Centers in 2023.

“The addition of ValorC3’s second data center will give our local businesses a distinct advantage as we continue to grow,” said Diane Bevan, President/CEO for the Idaho Technology Council. “The added services will support the expansion of existing businesses and strengthen our appeal for new enterprises looking to expand their operations.”
