Interconnection records
No interconnection-queue record is linked to this site. Of the ISOs we ingest, only NYISO publishes large-load requests; PJM, ERCOT, MISO, SPP and CAISO queues list generation only.
On-site & dedicated generation
No on-site, behind-the-meter or dedicated generation found in sources.

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.

Both buildings and their cooling infrastructure look complete, but the site probably is likely still under commissioning, and few cars are parked to the right of Building 1. We give another 3 months before it's operational.
Buildings 1 and 2 are estimated to be operational.
