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

Colocation data center planned inside the former Stanley Black & Decker factory on Myrtle Street, next to a fuel-cell power plant that, as of September 2026, is tracked separately as Energy & Innovation Park Fuel Cell Microgrid (Generate NB Fuel Cells). Hartford Business Journal (2022) describes a '$1 billion, 44-megawatt' colocation project first proposed in 2018. That investment figure covers the whole redevelopment, fuel cells included, not the data center alone. Baxtel describes Phase II (data center in the main factory building) as following Phase I (the fuel-cell grid). Hartford Business Journal (2022) reports city officials describing phase one as "focused on providing clean energy to the electric grid", and O&G Industries, the contractor, says Phases 2 and 3 "are planned to leverage this clean cogeneration energy source" to support an Energy and Innovation Park that includes a data center. No source retrieved as of October 2026 states how much of the plant's output would serve the data center, so no on-site generation figure is recorded. No source found shows data-center construction or a tenant as of 2026-09-30. A $55.2M sales-tax exemption appears in DCD coverage, but that page could not be read as of September 2026 and is not cited or recorded.

Planned to leverage the adjacent fuel-cell plant's energy: O&G Industries says Phases 2 and 3 are planned to leverage its clean cogeneration energy source. The plant's first phase is described as providing power to the electric grid, and no source states the share that would serve the data center.
