Utility, ISO and nearby assets are derived from the site's location. Proximity to a substation or line doesn't establish the interconnection; that needs a utility filing or interconnection-queue record. Queue requests are applications, not commitments — most never reach operation.

    According to a few sources, Core Scientific announced that they're rebuilding their existing Dalton 1 (and we're assuming 2) datacenter to run AI using CoreWeave's GPUs, of which contract was first signed on this date. According to the press release, "The site modifications are expected to commence early in the second half of 2024 and achieve operational status in the first half of 2025."

    Building 1 is operational, given it was announced completed 4 months ago and looks completed in satellite imagery. All cooling/mechanical rows are installed, with no obvious active building construction visible.
