Rance Enterprises is proud to be among the early developers of next-generation, AI-ready data center sites in Southern California. We are currently advancing three strategically located data center projects, each at different stages of development.

The rapid growth of artificial intelligence and cloud computing has intensified the demand for data center capacity. However, the future expansion of the industry depends on addressing two critical challenges simultaneously: access to reliable power and minimizing impacts on surrounding communities. Our projects were carefully selected with these objectives in mind.

Each of our sites is located in remote or rural areas where development can occur with minimal impact on nearby communities. At the same time, they offer a significant advantage in addressing one of the industry's most pressing constraints: power availability. Our properties are situated immediately adjacent to major electrical transmission corridors, providing direct proximity to critical power infrastructure and substantially reducing one of the principal obstacles facing new data center development.

In addition, our sites encompass sufficient acreage to support a variety of energy strategies, including the potential integration of on-site renewable energy generation and energy storage systems. This flexibility creates the opportunity to develop hybrid facilities designed to reduce dependence on the electrical grid and enhance long-term operational resilience.

The sites are also strategically positioned near major fiber-optic routes and network hubs, providing the connectivity required for modern, high-performance computing operations. Furthermore, each location offers access to adequate water resources necessary to support data center operations.

The development of a data center generally progresses through three principal stages:

Stage 1: Site Acquisition
 

Identification and acquisition of strategically suitable properties.

Stage 2: Planning and Entitlement
 

Preparation of technical studies, environmental review, engineering design, and the securing of all required governmental approvals and permits.

Stage 3: Monetization and Deployment
 

Offering fully entitled, ready-to-develop projects to technology companies and data center operators through sale, ground lease, joint venture, or long-term development partnerships.

We have successfully completed Stage 1 for all three of our Southern California projects and are actively advancing the entitlement and development process. The following is a brief introduction to each of these three data center developments:

Yucca Valley Project

Located in San Bernardino County, the Yucca Valley Project currently consists of an approximately 80-acre site with immediate proximity to high-capacity transmission infrastructure operated by Southern California Edison. We are also in active negotiations to acquire an additional adjoining 80-acre parcel, which would expand the project to a combined footprint of 160 acres.

The scale of the assembled site would provide the flexibility to incorporate on-site renewable energy generation, including solar and potentially wind power, together with battery energy storage systems. This integrated approach could support the development of a medium- to large-scale hybrid data center designed to enhance energy resilience and reduce reliance on external power sources.

Salton Sea Project

The Salton Sea Project encompasses approximately 120 acres in Riverside County and benefits from convenient access to four major electrical transmission corridors. The property's size and strategic location create the opportunity to integrate substantial on-site renewable energy generation and energy storage infrastructure as part of a medium- to large-scale data center development.

The project has been selected to capitalize on the region's unique energy advantages while supporting the growing demand for next-generation computing capacity.

Shadow Valley Project

The Shadow Valley Project is a large-scale, approximately 565-acre development site located in San Bernardino County near the Nevada border. Major electrical transmission infrastructure is available immediately at the property, making it exceptionally well suited for renewable energy and energy-intensive applications.

As part of the overall development plan, approximately 120 acres of the site have been designated for a hybrid data center campus capable of integrating on-site power generation and energy storage solutions. The property's strategic location also provides convenient access to major fiber-optic infrastructure essential for high-performance data connectivity.

In addition to its data center component, Shadow Valley represents a significant renewable energy development opportunity with the potential to support a broad range of future energy and technology initiatives.
