NYPA approves power allocation for proposed Yahoo! data center
The New York Power Authority -- which previously came under fire for denying power allocation to a planned data center in Albion for Google -- unanimously approved power for a similar facility for Yahoo! today.
Gov. David Paterson announced the decision and discussed details of the proposal in a teleconference this morning, according to the Buffalo News.
One site in Genesee County and two in Niagara County are under consideration.
The facility would cost $150 million and when completed would employe about 125 people with an average salary of $65,000.
Yahoo! has been negotiating with state officials for the past six weeks for an allocation of 10 megawatts of low-cost hydroelectric power in order to build phase one of the center.
If the Yahoo! Board of Directors accepts the state's deal, the company would move forward with the project. Phase two to complete the data center would be done by 2012 and Yahoo! would be allowed another 5 megawatts of hydroelectric power.
