GroqCloud Kamloops Inference Cluster
Also known as Bell AI Fabric Kamloops Groq facility
Operated by Groq at Bell AI Fabric Kamloops .
Phase 1 seed dataset, compiled by hand. These rows were built from public operator, laboratory and vendor sources. A mechanical second-reader pass has since fetched every cited source: 1092 of 1153 systems have a readable citation that names them, and 40 are genuinely weakly sourced. Every claim carries its source and a confidence tier. Treat anything below verified as a lead, not a citation.

Figures are as last publicly reported for the configuration described below, not a live measurement. Where a system was upgraded in place, the post-upgrade configuration is shown and the earlier one appears in the timeline.
What this machine is made of
One row per supplier relationship. “Supplier at build” is the company that shipped the part at the time; where that company has since been acquired, the parent it rolls up to today is shown beside it. That distinction is what makes ticker-level aggregation possible across a thirty-year dataset.

The read
The first Bell AI Fabric facility: a 7 MW Groq LPU inference facility in Kamloops, British Columbia, announced by Groq and Bell Canada on 28 May 2025 as coming online in June 2025, with Groq named exclusive inference provider for Bell AI Fabric (six sites, 500 MW target). RCR Wireless on 29 July 2025 only says the facility was expected to come online the previous month; no fetched page confirms go-live or gives an LPU count, so it stays under construction. This is Groq's own installation and is separate from the TELUS Kamloops entries. The two sources repeat the Groq and Bell announcement, so the tier is reported.

Source check
We fetched this system's own citations and recorded whether each page actually mentions it. This is a corroboration signal, not a fact check, and it is published so you can see how well the sourcing holds up rather than take it on trust.
