Wyoming Business Council approves bond for Cheyenne biogas fuel cell

The Wyoming Business Council board of directors voted Tuesday to recommend approval of a grant to help bring an experimental fuel-cell-powered data center to Cheyenne.

The board approved a $1.5 million grant application from the city of Cheyenne’s Board of Public Utilities, which would fund construction of city-owned transmission lines leading from a city water reclamation facility to a fuel cell and then to a small Microsoft data center. The project is expected to cost just more than $8 million.
