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

  1. Proposed

    Beltline Energy presented a 500-acre, up-to-16-building, up-to-$16B campus off Highway O south of the Meramec River to the Pacific Board of Aldermen.

    Underlying source
  2. Permitted

    Franklin County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved rezoning for the Beltline Energy project south of Pacific along Highway O. Beltline had withdrawn only its separate City of Pacific PUD application on Aug. 7, 2026, and said it would pursue the project with Franklin County.

Source notes

Also reported as the 'Crooked Creek' farm proposal and the 'Beltline Energy Project'. About 500 acres off Highway O south of the Meramec River, in unincorporated Franklin County outside Pacific's city limits. St. Louis Magazine reported a presentation of up to 16 buildings, 'up to a $16 billion total investment', and a project that, per Beltline partner Ryan Sanders, 'could draw as much as 1.2 Gigawatts if fully developed'. These are ceilings and a projected electric draw, not firm figures, so no planned capacity or investment figure is recorded. Jobs as presented: about 1,000 construction jobs per year over eight years and 360-500 full-time jobs (a range, so not structured). Franklin County P&Z recommended denial in April 2026. Beltline withdrew its City of Pacific PUD/annexation application on Aug. 7, 2026, after Pacific adopted a one-year moratorium, then pursued county rezoning, which the County Commission approved on Sept. 15, 2026. A Baxtel listing calls the project 'withdrawn'; it conflates the city withdrawal with the county track and is not relied on. Coordinates are the OSM point for Phelan Road (Baxtel lists 684 Phelan Rd), a road-level approximation, not a parcel centroid.
