STAK Energy Project Aaka - North Slope Power Campus Development

STAK was founded on a simple observation: Alaska's North Slope holds the largest stranded natural gas reserves in North America. That energy resource has been sitting underutilized for over 50 years. And today, while the nation and the state face a growing shortage of energy infrastructure, we are endeavoring to put Alaska’s resources to work.

STAK is developing Project Aaka, a multi-gigawatt, off-grid natural gas fired power plant on
Alaska's North Slope. We are building critical energy infrastructure, built in Alaska, using Alaska's resources. The power we produce can serve myriad applications, from mining and military needs to industrial development and advanced computing.
