AI evidence brief
Summarizes only the evidence on this page. Answers citing anything else are rejected automatically.
How the time-to-power window was estimated
Evidence used
  • Current stage: Under construction (furthest stage with documented evidence)[1]
  • Construction elapsed: Construction documented since 2024-04-01 (2.5 years).
  • Stated date: Next projected milestone: 2026-12-01 (modeled/speculative)[1]
  • Required: 1.04 GW
Assumptions
  • From “Under construction”, large loads have typically taken 0.5–2 more years to first power (editorial range; see Methodology).
  • Construction to first power typically takes 1.25–2.5 years.
  • The window is a range of plausible outcomes under these assumptions, not a forecast. It moves as new filings, queue updates or imagery arrive.
Window: H1 2027 – H2 2027

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.

Timeline

Construction start: Apr 1, 2024[1]
First operational: Dec 1, 2026[1]
  1. Apr 1, 2024[1]

    First signs of development/land clearing

  2. Sep 13, 2024[1]

    Roof complete on Building 1 (the 'H'), although we suspect this building is not for AI compute due to the construction speed, irregular design, and lack of external cooling.

  3. Jun 10, 2025[1]

    After a long quiet period they've laid foundations for Building 2 and the substation.

  4. Oct 1, 2025[1]

    Building 2 looks externally complete

  5. Mar 1, 2026[1]

    The cooling towers for Buildings 2 and 3 are both a little less than half done and the buildings still look like active construction sites.

  6. Aug 19, 2026[1]

    Building 2 has all cooling towers installed and is likely undergoing fit-out and commissioning. So we give it about 3 more months until it's operational. Building 3 appears to be slightly further than Building 2 was in March, so we estimate a 4-month lag.

  7. Dec 1, 2026Projected207 MW facility power· 1 buildings operational[1]

    Estimated operational date of Building 2.

  8. Mar 31, 2027Projected414 MW facility power· 2 buildings operational[1]

    Estimated operational date of Building 3. Based on Building 3 construction looking about 4 months behind Building 2.

  9. Aug 28, 2027Projected621 MW facility power· 3 buildings operational[1]

    Estimated operational date of Building 4. Based on Building 4 construction looking about 10 months behind Building 2.

  10. Jan 25, 2028Projected828 MW facility power· 4 buildings operational[1]

    Estimated operational date of Building 5. Based on previous buildings being separated by about 5 months.

  11. Jun 23, 2028Projected1.04 GW facility power· 5 buildings operational[1]

    Estimated operational date of Building 6. Based on previous buildings being separated by about 5 months.
