1657 Alviso-Milpitas Road in San Jose is the site of Microsoft's San Jose Data Center: two single-storey buildings of about 396,914 gross sq ft in total, covering data halls and administration. The California Energy Commission granted it a Small Power Plant Exemption, which is available only below 100 MW; Microsoft filed a 99 MW maximum load and a 77 MW estimate for normal running. Pacific Gas and Electric is the serving utility. The case dates from 2019 and is separate from Microsoft's later Orchard Parkway filing in the same city.
