The record, newest first
Clemson describes the ITC's 20,000 sq ft of raised floor, two 2.5 MW transformers on redundant feeds and two 2.5 MW backup generators. (Clemson University CCIT, Oct. 24, 2026; Clemson University CCIT, Oct. 24, 2026)
Clemson said its Palmetto 2 cluster, housed in the Information Technology Center, had gone live. (Clemson News, May 13, 2024)
Conflicts and open questions
- No IT-load figure is published; the two 2.5 MW transformers describe electrical infrastructure, not demand, so mw is left blank.
- Roughly half of the raised floor (about 10,000 sq ft) is assigned to research computing.
- Coordinates approximate, Advanced Materials Research Park near Pendleton.
