Powering Nigeria’s
Digital Future
StrataCore Energy LLC is partnering with a Nigerian private-sector project developer to advance the Nigeria Renewable AI & Digital Infrastructure Corridor (NRAIDC) in Lokoja, Kogi State. The project is being developed as an integrated renewable energy and digital infrastructure platform designed to support AI computing, cloud services, hyperscale data centres, high-performance computing and other mission-critical digital infrastructure.
Phase I — 200 MW Renewable-Powered Digital Infrastructure Platform
175 MW Hydropower
Initial 175 MW of dedicated renewable hydropower capacity providing reliable, scalable energy for digital infrastructure and data center operations.
25 MW Solar Generation
Utility-scale solar generation complementing hydropower and providing additional renewable energy capacity for the digital infrastructure platform.
200 MW Data Center Campus
Phase I digital infrastructure campus designed for AI computing, cloud services, hyperscale data centers and other mission-critical computing applications.
100 MWh Battery Energy Storage
Grid-scale battery storage supporting energy management, system flexibility, renewable integration, power quality, and operational resilience.
Built Around Power — Designed For Compute
NRAIDC is being developed as an integrated infrastructure platform combining reliable renewable energy, energy storage, digital infrastructure and strategic connectivity. Power generation, transmission, fibre connectivity, water and cooling infrastructure, site infrastructure and digital facilities are planned as a coordinated ecosystem.
Reliable Renewable Energy + Digital Infrastructure + Strategic Connectivity
Phase II — Expansion to 750 MW
Expansion of the initial 200 MW platform toward the project’s planned 750 MW renewable generation capacity, supporting additional data center development and large-scale digital infrastructure.
550 MW Additional Hydropower
Expansion of hydroelectric capacity from the initial 175 MW to approximately 725 MW, providing large-scale renewable power for expanded data center and digital infrastructure development.
Expanded Data Center Campus
Expansion of the initial 200 MW data center campus to support additional AI computing, cloud services, hyperscale data centers and other mission-critical digital infrastructure.
Supporting Infrastructure
Additional power infrastructure and regional connectivity developed alongside expanded hydropower capacity to support data center growth toward the project’s planned 750 MW renewable generation capacity.
Strategic Location — Lokoja, Kogi State
Located near the confluence of the Niger and Benue Rivers, the project is positioned within one of Nigeria’s most significant river systems. The planned barrage will harness the river’s renewable energy potential while providing the foundation for large-scale digital infrastructure development.
Why Lokoja
Lokoja sits at the confluence of the Niger and Benue Rivers, placing the project at the heart of one of West Africa’s major river systems. The location combines significant renewable-energy potential with a strategic position for development of large-scale digital infrastructure.
The planned barrage and supporting infrastructure are intended to provide scalable renewable power for data centers, AI computing and other energy-intensive digital applications.
Project Development
The Nigeria Renewable AI & Digital Infrastructure Corridor is being advanced as a private-sector-led, phased infrastructure development integrating renewable power generation, energy storage, digital infrastructure and regional connectivity. The project is being developed toward internationally recognized technical, environmental, social and financial standards to support long-term infrastructure investment and project financing.
