Clarksville Connected Utilities (CCU) has published an agenda for its board meeting scheduled for Nov. 16, 2026, which includes details on power demand tied to a data center operating in the utility’s service area, according to the published agenda.
The agenda document states that CCU “has an annual peak demand of around 40-45 MW depending on the year with an addition[al] 18 MW handled separately for the data center in town,” according to the published agenda. The document further states that CCU “gets 7 MW of capacity from the White River Hydroelectric facility” and “17 MW of solar built in Clarksville that we have agreements to purch[ase],” according to the published agenda.
The matter is relevant to residents because it concerns how the local utility allocates power capacity among residential and commercial demand and a data center load, and which generation sources — hydroelectric and solar — are used to meet that demand, according to the agenda.
