Source-reported capacity; not metered consumption. Review underlying documents and notes. Planned capacity may include future phases and is not added to operational capacity here. The source may use facility, grid-feed or IT capacity definitions; consult the linked documents.

Coordinate precision is a source label, not an independent parcel survey. A marker does not confirm utility territory or establish an effect on residential bills.

Source notes

Brownfield redevelopment of former AEP Conesville coal plant (reported as 2,000+ MW by Frontier Group of Companies and as 2,300 MW by its chief operating officer at the October 2025 groundbreaking; operational 62 years, closed May 2020). Frontier Group of Companies acquired the plant in 2020 and built the Conesville Industrial Park across ~2,500 acres; Aligned purchased a 197-acre parcel. Aligned describes the project as 'AI/HPC' and 'Gigascale' in its press materials, and this is its third Ohio campus (others: Perkins Township/Sandusky, 96 MW total; Pataskala). Multi-building campus — renderings show up to four buildings; second, third, and fourth buildings referenced at groundbreaking. As of October 2026, Aligned's press release states no capacity figure; the Coshocton County Port Authority executive director said, as reported by the Athens County Independent, that the final buildout will have a capacity of 340 megawatts. Investment described as 'multi-billion dollar' — as of July 2026, no firm figure was confirmed, so no investment figure is recorded. Aligned's press release says the phased development is anticipated to generate 'thousands of construction jobs and hundreds of high-quality, long-term operational roles'. The Athens County Independent reports the Port Authority executive director saying the project is expected to create more than 1,800 jobs during construction, and Aligned saying it will create 149 jobs in the long term. All are projections. Aligned is exploring on-site nuclear power (SMRs) for this campus and nearby Zanesville/Cambridge sites; no agreement confirmed. Coordinates approximate (village-level). Site infrastructure funding note: the Coshocton Port Authority received a $58.7M grant (Ohio Dept of Development All Ohio Future Fund, announced July 21, 2025) for utility upgrades, water/wastewater extensions, and roadway improvements across the broader industrial park — this benefits Aligned indirectly but is not a direct subsidy to Aligned and is therefore not listed under subsidies.

Site is in AEP Ohio service territory. Brownfield location retains former plant's high-capacity grid infrastructure, which is a primary site-selection advantage. Aligned is publicly exploring on-site SMR/nuclear additions but no confirmed agreement. Nuclear would be future supplemental supply.
