Water
Rigetti's superconducting quantum processors run in dilution refrigerators using a helium-3/helium-4 mixture at millikelvin temperatures; the lab is not water-cooled at the process level.

County water status: No drought in Alameda County, week of 2026-08-18 (US Drought Monitor). Data centers are large water users for cooling; this is the neutral local water picture.

Why here

Rigetti Computing Berkeley Quantum Lab sits on leased. It connects to the CAISO grid, draws on grid power. This siting summary is composed from the record's held fields, not speculation; see methodology.

Common questions

What is Rigetti Computing Berkeley Quantum Lab?
Rigetti Computing Berkeley Quantum Lab is an AI data center campus tracked on the DEPLOY registry, located in Berkeley, California, USA (UC Berkeley). DEPLOY records its capacity as a dated, sourced ledger: announced gigawatts versus actually energized gigawatts, never a press-release total.
Who is building Rigetti Computing Berkeley Quantum Lab?
Rigetti Computing is recorded as a party to Rigetti Computing Berkeley Quantum Lab on the DEPLOY registry. The full party list, with each role, is on the record.
Is Rigetti Computing Berkeley Quantum Lab operating yet?
As of the most recent verification on the DEPLOY registry, Rigetti Computing Berkeley Quantum Lab is energized and operating. DEPLOY tracks the lifecycle from announced through energized, so the current state reflects sourced evidence, not the original announcement.
How verified is the data on Rigetti Computing Berkeley Quantum Lab?
A human editor has reviewed this record for the indexed registry. Every capacity figure is an append-only, dated claim resolved to the highest-evidence tier; superseded claims are kept but excluded from the current view.
