We believe AI infrastructure should create value well beyond the campus, and we&#8217;re proud to continue building in North Dakota.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Montana-Dakota Utilities currently serves Applied Digital at Polaris Forge 1, its AI Factory near Ellendale, North Dakota, where the companies have worked together to integrate significant power demand while maintaining reliable, cost-effective service for customers, crediting $38.4 million back to North Dakota customers over the past three years.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This proposed project reflects the growing interest in North Dakota as a location for large energy users,&#8221; said Nicole Kivisto, president and CEO of MDU Resources. &#8220;We are committed to serving these customers in a way that benefits our communities, supports the regional grid and delivers value to our customers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Approval of the ESA and other regulatory filings by the North Dakota Public Service Commission is required for the company to provide power under the agreement with Applied Digital.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <b><br \/>\n          <u>About MDU Resources Group, Inc.<\/u><br \/>\n        <\/b><br \/>\n        <br \/>\n        <i>MDU Resources Group, Inc., a member of the S&amp;P SmallCap 600 index, strives to deliver safe, reliable, cost-effective and environmentally responsible electric utility and natural gas distribution services to more than 1.2 million customers across the Pacific Northwest and Midwest.
