Canadian AI Sovereignty + Commercial Colocation
Where power becomes intelligence.
Power-first compute infrastructure platform in British Columbia. Our pipeline is under evaluation, focused on validated power pathways and disciplined execution before major capital deployment.
Investor inquiries
The Opportunity
The AI infrastructure bottleneck is power, permitting, and time
Demand compounds faster than supply
Compute demand continues to accelerate exponentially, while power infrastructure and regulatory approvals move at traditional infrastructure timelines.
Interconnection is the constraint
Interconnection queues and permitting processes have become the primary gating factors for delivering real, operational data center capacity at scale.
Power validation first
Avro's strategy focuses on identifying and validating viable power pathways through rigorous diligence before committing significant capital to any project.
Why British Columbia
British Columbia's structural advantage
Grid reliability & jurisdiction
  • Hydro-based electricity grid with proven reliability
  • Established infrastructure and transmission networks
  • Stable Western jurisdiction with regulatory clarity
  • Strong alignment with long-term industrial planning
Economic & strategic positioning
  • Competitive power economics achievable with appropriate rate classes
  • Load factor optimization opportunities
  • Natural fit for sovereignty-driven AI workloads
  • Commercial colocation demand from hyperscalers
What Avro Does
Power-first development platform
Avro develops power-first compute sites by systematically converting conditional power assets into bankable, investment-grade, build-ready projects. Our approach emphasizes disciplined diligence gates that validate interconnection pathways and power supply agreements before advancing to construction phases. This methodology reduces execution risk and ensures capital efficiency.
01
Screen potential sites
Identify underutilized substation assets and power opportunities across British Columbia through systematic market analysis.
02
Validate interconnection pathway
Conduct detailed technical and commercial validation of utility interconnection options and power supply agreement structures.
03
Produce feasibility packages
Develop comprehensive investment-grade documentation covering technical, commercial, environmental, and regulatory dimensions.
04
Build in modular increments
Execute construction in phases as diligence gates clear, optimizing capital deployment and risk management throughout the build process.

Sites under screening
Active evaluation across British Columbia
60MW
Indicative combined potential
Preliminary capacity estimate subject to validation
Primary criterion
Focus on underutilized or stranded substation assets with existing transmission infrastructure that can be repurposed for compute workloads.
Behind-the-meter generation
Sites with co-located generation capabilities represent bonus opportunities where technically and commercially viable.
Early diligence stage
All sites remain in screening and early diligence phases. No site control is implied. Detailed information shared under NDA as diligence advances.
Diligence Funnel
Conditional assets → bankable projects
Value creation occurs through disciplined gating and systematic risk reduction, not through premature megawatt claims. Each stage validates critical assumptions before capital commitment.
1
Desktop screening
Power asset fit assessment, zoning analysis, and preliminary land-use evaluation
2
Initial site diligence
Physical constraints mapping, environmental flags identification, and access validation
3
Power pathway validation
Utility interconnection feasibility and power supply agreement structure confirmation
4
Commercial structuring
LOI and option approach development, remediation allowance negotiations
5
Preliminary design
Order-of-magnitude capital expenditure ranges and technical configuration options
6
Investment-grade package
Final feasibility documentation enabling go/no-go investment decision
Sovereign AI Opportunity
National security meets data residency requirements
In-country compute preference
Accelerating demand for domestic compute infrastructure and data residency for sensitive and regulated workloads across public and private sectors.
Critical infrastructure drivers
Public sector entities, critical infrastructure operators, and regulated industries increasingly require sovereign compute capabilities for compliance and security.
Parallel market segments
Sovereign AI workloads and commercial hyperscaler colocation represent complementary opportunities within the same infrastructure platform.
Canada's position as a stable Western jurisdiction with strong data protection frameworks makes British Columbia particularly attractive for sovereignty-focused compute deployments seeking reliability and regulatory certainty.
Roadmap
Gated execution across three phases
Phase 1: Secure & de-risk
Complete site screening, validate power pathways, and finalize investment-grade feasibility packages. No megawatts online during this phase. Focus on conditional asset conversion and commercial structuring.
Phase 2: Finance & build
Execute definitive agreements, close project financing, and commence construction activities. Physical infrastructure deployment begins as all commercial and technical gates are satisfied.
Phase 3: Commission & scale
Bring initial capacity online, achieve operational commissioning milestones, and expand to multi-site deployment across validated pipeline opportunities.
Economics
Indicative project economics

Disclaimer: All figures presented are indicative, order-of-magnitude estimates subject to validation through detailed engineering and commercial diligence. Actual project economics will vary by site, configuration, power arrangements, and market conditions.
Capital expenditure
Order-of-magnitude capex varies by site configuration, power interconnection requirements, and facility specifications. Detailed estimates produced during feasibility phase.
Power economics
Competitive power costs achievable through appropriate rate class selection, load factor optimization, and strategic utility engagement. Site-specific.
Development timeline
Project timelines driven by interconnection queue position, permitting pathway complexity, and construction sequencing decisions under phased execution model.
Avro's focus on power-first validation and gated capital deployment is designed to optimize risk-adjusted returns while maintaining flexibility to respond to market conditions and customer requirements throughout the development cycle.
