Anthropic has signed its first Canadian data centre agreement, securing capacity at EverWind’s planned campus in Point Tupper, Nova Scotia. The Claude developer’s long-term lease brings a major AI customer to a proposed development combining computing infrastructure with new wind generation.
EverWind announced plans for approximately $10 billion in private investment, including $8 billion for the data centre and $2 billion for onshore wind projects. The company projects roughly 2,000 construction jobs and 215 permanent positions. The announcement positions Cape Breton as a potential AI infrastructure hub, while delivery will depend on executing the proposed campus and associated energy projects.
