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.
Reported lifecycle history
- Proposed
A memorandum of option recorded in Angelina County gives Amp Z the right to buy ~1,041 acres of the former Southland Paper Mill from Verdant Industries.
Underlying source
Source notes
In unincorporated Angelina County outside Lufkin. Investment ($1.05B) and jobs come from a city of Lufkin fact sheet. The 2.1 GW is a 2029 target, not a commitment. The land is under option, not purchased. Distinct from the tracked HyperDataGrid site, which is on the former Northern Chip Mill off Ben Dunn Road. Coordinates are the Lufkin city point.
Existing 55 MW onsite substation. The plan is to scale beyond 2.1 GW by 2029 through utility service (Oncor collateral rules apply) plus onsite generation.
