AI-ready design
Mixed rack densities, with liquid cooling (direct-to-chip or rear-door) matched to tenant equipment, so AI and GPU workloads can be hosted with confidence.
Proposed 150 MW Datacentre Campus
Developing digital infrastructure for cloud, AI and enterprise growth
Talonex is the project company behind a proposed 150 MW green datacentre and AI infrastructure campus in Kenya.
Regional Compute Infrastructure
Meeting East Africa's Critical Data & Compute Demand
Kenya’s businesses, public institutions and AI developers need dependable, scalable infrastructure to host critical data and run demanding compute workloads. Talonex is planning a flagship campus to meet that need in stages, with power, cooling and connectivity designed together around customer requirements.
Project Specifications
The campus at a glance
Key operational parameters planned for the proposed Talonex development.
Ultimate Planned IT Capacity
150 MW
Conceived for large-scale cloud, AI clusters, and enterprise workloads.
Reference Development Phases
3 × 50 MW
Staged expansion responding directly to customer commitments.
Efficiency Target
1.30 PUE
Target annual Power Usage Effectiveness via climate-adapted cooling.
Preferred Site
Voi, Kenya
Strategic position along Kenya's primary transport and energy corridor.
Final site rights and utility arrangements remain subject to completion.
Next-Generation Engineering
Built for the AI era
Holistic infrastructure engineered around high rack density, liquid cooling pathways, and sustainable power.
Integrated, green power
The concept combines solar PV, battery storage and two separate grid supply paths, planned as an engine-free design.
Resilient by design
A/B critical power distribution, diverse fibre routes and carrier meet-me rooms.
Efficient cooling
A closed-loop design aims to limit make-up water, with the cooling approach chosen to suit rack density, climate and water availability.
Tailored Ecosystem
Who we serve
Custom-configured infrastructure solutions for hyperscalers, governments, and regional enterprises.
Cloud and AI providers
Scalable space and power for cloud platforms, AI infrastructure and GPU hosting.
Government and sovereign users
In-country hosting for public-sector workloads, with security and service requirements agreed per customer.
Enterprise customers
Capacity for cloud migration, business continuity and regional digital services.
Delivery Framework
A staged, demand-led approach
We develop capacity in phases, and release it as customer demand is contracted.
STAGE 01
Site and feasibility
Land and utility terms, environmental work, defined Phase 1 scope.
STAGE 02
Engineering and customer commitments
Detailed design and commercial agreements.
STAGE 03
Investment and construction
Approved financing and construction oversight.
STAGE 04
Commissioning and expansion
Integrated testing, customer acceptance and phased growth.
Environmental & Social Governance
Responsible development
Talonex intends to build environmental and social considerations into the project from the start: efficient use of energy and water, site-specific environmental and social assessments before construction commitments, and local participation through procurement, training and skills transfer.
Institutional Background
Experience that informs our work
Through Barwasim Africa Consulting Ltd’s partnership with SIC, Talonex draws on experience from Project Savanna, a 100 MW development in Konza Technopolis covering campus phasing, power-supply assessment, and institutional and utility coordination.
