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.

Underlying source
Source notes
Operator's current project page states "4 story, 174,900 SF" and "53 MW in total power from ComEd, 28 MW initial phase"; the 2022 announcement described a 21MW five-storey building, so the design grew. Status is the weakest link here — neither operator page states a live date, and confidence is set to reported accordingly. Coordinates geocoded from the published street address.
