MTL-3 is a community-integrated heat-reuse data center supplying district energy to a 1,000-unit social-housing campus, positioning it as a flagship public-benefit project supporting Montreal’s decarbonization strategy. The site provides 5 MW of compute capacity and 10,000 ft² of data hall area, developed as a retrofit with a 12-month lead time. Heat revalorization and community alignment make MTL-3 a uniquely high-visibility and sustainability-driven deployment location.
FirstBlock builds data center campuses around a simple idea: the best digital infrastructure begins with the best energy. Originating in Québec, we developed deep expertise in identifying clean, low-cost power markets and transforming them into high-performance environments for cloud, AI, and HPC operators. Today, we apply that expertise across Canada, selecting regions with stable, low-carbon power and shaping them into liquid-ready, high-density sites optimized for next-generation workloads.
Our campuses turn energy advantages into operational benefits. Advanced hydrocooling and large-scale heat-reuse systems drive consistently low PUE, improving efficiency while reducing environmental impact. Each location is prepared for rapid deployment with permitting, utility alignment, and engineering groundwork already completed, giving tenants a predictable and accelerated path to scale.
By combining energy intelligence, sustainable engineering, and a commitment to long-term cost competitiveness, FirstBlock offers operators a reliable, efficient infrastructure platform built for growth.
