Live Configurator

This is the production widget running under a demo licence. Switch configuration, Canadian province or any US state (figures switch to USD with state tax and large-load tariff rules applied), cooling architecture and accelerator class and the entire model recalculates. Version 1.5.0 prices every quote with a live US/Canadian dollar exchange rate (Bank of Canada first, fetched each time the page loads) and shows the headline figures in both currencies. It covers 13 accelerator classes in two vendor groups: NVIDIA from H100 through Blackwell, GB200 and GB300 NVL72 to Vera Rubin, and AMD Instinct from MI300X through MI355X to the Helios MI455X rack.

Outputs are planning-grade estimates built on published 2026 benchmarks. Not an engineering quote, not financial advice.

How It Embeds

Two elements. No build step, no package install, no copy of the model on your server. The widget renders inside a shadow root, so it cannot inherit or break your existing site styles.

Paste where the tool should appear:

<div data-scr-ai-build data-key="YOUR-LICENCE-KEY" data-profile="powered-shell" data-region="BC" data-theme="dark" data-accent="#60a5fa" data-brand="Your Firm Name"></div> <script src="https://strategiccryptoreserve.ca/widgets/scr-ai-build-widget.js" async></script>

What the Model Returns

  1. Facility load. IT load multiplied by the PUE of the selected cooling architecture, so the megawatts you have to buy from the utility rather than the megawatts reaching compute.
  2. Rack and accelerator counts. Derived from rack density, capped at the physical ceiling of the chosen cooling method, with per-accelerator draw including node overhead for CPU, NIC and storage.
  3. Capital expenditure by line item. Shell and core, electrical and mechanical fit-out, cooling system, network fabric, land, utility contribution, soft costs and accelerator purchase where the configuration owns silicon, plus equipment sales and use tax for US states with no open exemption.
  4. Annual energy. Megawatt-hours and cost, splitting utilisation-scaled IT consumption from constant cooling and distribution overhead, with state electricity consumption taxes such as Virginia's $0.011/kWh levy included in the energy cost.
  5. Revenue by commercial structure. Dollar per kilowatt-month for lease and hosting models, dollar per accelerator-hour for owner-operator and neocloud models, and a blended split for hybrid mining and AI sites.
  6. EBITDA, margin, simple payback and contract term value, plus build duration added to the provincial or state interconnection queue so the timeline to first revenue is visible alongside the economics.
  7. Country rules and currency. Canadian provinces return every figure in CAD. US states return every figure in USD, with a construction location factor, a property tax index, sales and use tax status and any large-load take-or-pay tariff applied and itemised.

State & Provincial Large-Load Tariff Library

Every state and province the configurator covers has its own large-load tariff mechanics. These deep-dive pages break down the threshold, minimum-take structure and named projects for each jurisdiction, sourced from public regulatory filings.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the AI Build Configurator embedded?

One container div carrying your licence key and configuration attributes, plus one script tag pointing at the hosted file on strategiccryptoreserve.ca. Nothing is copied to your server, no build step is required, and the widget renders inside a shadow root so it cannot collide with your existing site styles.

Does the configurator cover data centre locations in the United States?

Yes. Since version 1.3.0 the configurator covers all 50 US states and the District of Columbia alongside the nine Canadian provinces. Selecting a province returns every figure in Canadian dollars. Selecting a state switches every figure to US dollars and applies that state's indicative large-load power rate, interconnection queue, construction cost factor, property tax level, equipment sales and use tax where no exemption is open to new projects, and any large-load take-or-pay tariff such as Dominion GS-5 in Virginia or the AEP Ohio data centre tariff.

What does the licence include?

An annual domain licence covering the hosted script, ongoing maintenance of the cost constants and the Canadian provincial and US state power datasets, white-label theming to your brand colours, and configuration of which build profiles and regions your instance exposes. Licences are issued per domain and validated on load.

How are the numbers kept current?

The cost constants, provincial and state rates, state tax and tariff rules and interconnection queue estimates live in the hosted script file. When they are revised, every licensed embed reflects the change on the next page load. Licensees never redeploy anything and never run a stale model.

Can the model be customised to our own cost basis?

Yes, on the enterprise tier. Cost constants, revenue defaults, regional data and accelerator classes can be overridden per licence key so the widget reflects your own build costs rather than published benchmarks.

Is the output suitable for client-facing work?

It is a planning and screening tool. Outputs are order-of-magnitude estimates built on published benchmarks and are labelled as such in every export. They are appropriate for early site screening, client conversations and proposal framing, and are not a substitute for engineered estimates or utility confirmation.

Primary data sources: U.S. EIA state electricity data · BC Hydro business rates · Dominion Energy Virginia rates and tariffs (incl. the GS-5 large-load class) · AEP Ohio data centre tariff. Verify directly with the relevant utility before relying on any figure for a capital decision.
