Monolith/Crusoe Olive Creek data center
Hallam, Lancaster County, NE
Monolith (Crusoe modular data center partner) plans Monolith/Crusoe Olive Creek data center, a data center in Hallam, NE. The project is sized at 35 MW. Monolith Inc., which operates a carbon black plant at its Olive Creek campus in Hallam (Lancaster County), is partnering with Crusoe to add a 35MW modular data center (up to 36 Crusoe 'Spark' container-sized units) on roughly 10 acres of the property, with a larger second phase planned on an adjacent parcel. The Hallam Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of a special use permit after Monolith switched from an earlier plan to add ammonia production; the proposal drew significant organized local opposition ('Hallam Says No').
