New details appear of some of the Apple projects that we know less about, and about which little is usually said. The "Isabel Project", an idea that is based on a series of extensions that will take place about 15 minutes from the center of Reindeer, in the state of Nevada. There, The Cupertino-based company has one of the largest data centers it has in America.
We heard about this data center for the first time in mid-2012, and since then it has been expanded twice, in order to supply all the data traffic generated by users on the block. Now, a new permit requested by the American multinational shows us that their intention is to expand their facilities again.
BuildZoom, a website specialized in the search for building licenses and reforms in the United States, has realized that Apple has applied for a permit (already granted) for a further expansion worth approximately $ 50.7 million. We are talking about 3.5 hectares of new surfaces, distributed among about 8 buildings, as indicated in the document in question.
This new extension, baptized as "Isabel III Project", It is the last of the data center extensions of the Californian company in Nevada. In addition, together with this megaproject, Apple hopes to guarantee its use with 100% clean energy by creating a new solar panel farm that would produce 200 megawatts of power.
This extension confirms that Apple gives more and more importance to its services such as Apple Music, the iCloud or the App Store. Therefore, we understand that it is good news since it would mean that the use of these services does not stop being increased. In fact, recently the data that the company has provided has been frankly positive in the use of its interconnected services in the cloud. This also entails a greater number of income for the company.
