Quantica Infrastructure Unveils Big Sky Digital Infrastructure to Pioneer Montana's Digital Economy

Quantica Infrastructure, LLC has announced the launch of Big Sky Digital Infrastructure LLC (BSDI), marking a significant step forward in Montana's digital and renewable energy sectors. Located outside Billings, the 5,000-acre BSDI campus is poised to become a cornerstone of the digital economy, with an initial capacity of 500 MW of renewable power and battery energy storage, scalable up to 1 GW. Construction is set to begin in 2026, heralding a new era of economic and technological growth for the region.

The initiative, spearheaded by Montana native Damon Obie and co-founder John Chesser, aims to blend Montana's rich natural resources with the demands of the digital age. Quantica Infrastructure envisions the Big Sky Campus as a hub for hyperscale, AI, and cloud computing, offering an integrated solution of land, renewable energy, and high-speed fiber. This project not only addresses the growing demand for digital infrastructure but also promises to create numerous construction and permanent jobs, fostering local economic development and workforce training.

Charlie Baker, BSDI’s Chief Financial Officer, highlights the project's dual focus on sustainability and reliability. By integrating traditional grid power with renewable energy and battery storage, BSDI aims to meet the sustainability goals of its customers while enhancing the state's telecommunications infrastructure. The development includes hundreds of miles of fiber-ready underground conduit, ensuring fast and resilient connectivity to major metropolitan areas.

The Big Sky Campus represents a visionary approach to digital infrastructure, leveraging Montana's strategic geographic location and abundant renewable resources. It underscores a commitment to community values and heritage, while paving the way for innovation and opportunity in the digital age.
