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

    California Energy Commission issued a Notice of Preparation of a Draft EIR for the two-building campus at Orchard Parkway and Component Drive.

    Underlying source

Source notes

Distinct from the Microsoft Alviso campus already tracked: separate parcel (APNs 101-02-019 and 101-02-020 at 2515 Orchard Parkway, about 4 km from 1657 Alviso-Milpitas Road) and a separate CEC docket (22-SPPE-02 vs 19-SPPE-04). Still under CEC review as of the July 2025 fourth revised project description.

CEQA Notice of Preparation describes 37 diesel-fired backup generators totalling 97.8 MW — 32 primary 3-MW units, two 0.5-MW administrative units and two 0.8-MW storage-area units — plus an on-site substation and switchyard. PG&E has determined that reconductoring roughly 12 miles of existing transmission line would be needed to serve the project.
