Does this mean that Microsoft builds and operates the data center? What if they announce a power purchase agreement with another company or utility to buy power produced by a SMR?

Does this need to include all data centers?

Does the data center in question need to be exlusively powered by a SMR, or is a mix of power sources including a grid hookup allowed?

@EvanDaniel One data center is enough, and mix of power sources is allowed.
