Alchemy Plus has submitted proposals to Highland Council in Scotland with the aim of creating a £20 million computing centre, the Press and Journal reports.
The IT services company is hoping to build the centre on a site in the Inverness harbour, which is stated as having the capability of opening up a "whole new industry opportunity in the Highlands".
Alongside creating up to 400 jobs, the centre will offer utility computing and data services.
Alchemy Plus chief executive officer Steve Chisholm revealed that the centre will be a "best-in-class" facility due to its ability to "house powerful new high-density computing applications – up to ten times the 'per rack' capacity of most existing UK data centres".
Some 300 racks of computing equipment, including structured cabling, will be stored in the first phase of the centre, with work potentially beginning in the summer if the council approves plans.
Alchemy Plus delivers IT services to businesses of all sizes, ranging from small admin offices to major employers.
