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

No dated operational history is established in this record. Publication, discovery and source-update dates are not opening dates.

Source notes

Baxtel's directory lists this facility as 'FirstLight Burlington,' but the street address (45 Krupp Dr) does not exist in Burlington -- both the US Census geocoder and OSM Nominatim resolve it unambiguously to Williston, VT (OSM building match way/620853160, 'Krupp Drive... Williston, Chittenden County'; Census independently confirms '45 KRUPP DR, WILLISTON, VT, 05495'). Recorded here under its true municipality (Williston) rather than under the aggregator's market-name label. As of September 2026, only a single third-party directory source had been found for this facility's existence at all (no operator-page confirmation was obtained). As of October 2026, two further sources are cited: VTDigger reported in March 2014 that FirstLight was doubling capacity at its Williston data center on Krupp Drive, which had seven employees at the time, and the Vermont Chamber of Commerce member directory lists FirstLight at 45 Krupp Dr., Williston. Neither is an operator page, and given Baxtel's demonstrated city error, the record is marked reported rather than confirmed. No square footage or capacity figures were available as of September 2026; as of October 2026, none of the cited sources states either figure (VTDigger gives no number for the doubling). Baxtel lists it as 'Fully operational.'
