Budget estimate

$10,000,000 – $50,000,000

The budget for this project is difficult to estimate without more information on the scope of work and the lease terms. However, considering the project involves building and powering AI data centers, the budget could be substantial. Factors that may influence the likely payment range include the cost of land lease, construction costs, and the cost of powering the data centers. A rough estimate for the budget could be between $10 million and $50 million.
