NEW KENSINGTON, Pa. — AI infrastructure company TECfusions, Inc. announced Thursday that its data center in New Kensington is live and delivering graphics processing unit (GPU) capacity for artificial intelligence and high-performance computing workloads.
The facility complies with Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro’s Executive Order 2026-05, which establishes state standards for high-density data center developments, TECfusions officials say.
Located approximately 30 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, the data center’s campus covers about 1,395 acres. The site is partially leased and operational, with plans to scale to a total capacity of up to three gigawatts.
TECfusions reported that its development model enables contract-to-deployment timelines of less than six months for qualified customers.
“Pennsylvania has set a clear standard: data center development must be real, responsible and accountable to the communities in which it operates,” TECfusions founder Simon Tusha said. “New Kensington reflects that philosophy. We are already delivering GPU capacity and our strategy is centered on securing and developing the power, infrastructure and operational capabilities required to support AI at scale. The barriers to entry are substantial, particularly around power, permitting, capital and execution and TECfusions is well positioned to meet them with a compliant, infrastructure-first model.”
“Bringing New Kensington online is a meaningful milestone for TECfusions and for customers seeking real, deployable GPU infrastructure,” TECfusions CEO Denis Minihane said. “The market’s greatest constraint is increasingly power-ready capacity. Our New Kensington site is designed to address that constraint through high-density, AI-ready infrastructure and a thoughtful on-site power strategy that supports reliability, deployment speed and scalable growth.”
The New Kensington facility is currently powered by turbines. Long-term power plans call for dual utility connections and an on-site microgrid generation system supported by existing infrastructure on the site, including two fracking pads and a gas-drying plant.
