Well, there are alternatives to the 10mW power and 10mW
genset... 
10-20mW (or more) of nuclear power/gensets.

Get off the grid, sell back some power to the grid, reduce
your costs 
for power, especially peak rate power,
and be able to brag about having your own nuke plant.

This may give you more flexibility in finding the space
along the fibre 
corridor...

BTW, I did some quick googling and found a few interesting
links related 
to smaller nuclear generator systems:

While I would be much amused to see the response
in the area when Paul requested approval to site a
nuclear reactor on the Peninsula, I do not think
even Paul is quite up to that challenge.

Not so long up-thread, people were opposing water cooling on the grounds it was too dangerous...what if something leaked? Now we're talking sticking a nuclear reactor in your data centre.
