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
333,000 sq ft of data center space 220 feet underground in a former limestone mine on a 200-acre campus, about an hour north of Pittsburgh. The operator's page states "40 MW total potential capacity", a potential rather than a firm planned or in-service figure, so no capacity is recorded. As of October 2026, the operator page does not state the energised load. Cleanview's Pennsylvania list gives "Operating capacity 16 MW" for the site, ranked by power capacity; that is a power figure rather than a stated IT capacity, so it is not recorded as operational. Long-standing colocation/records site rather than an AI buildout — no AI classification asserted.
