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
Second phase of Rowan's three-phase Bauxite campus on the former Alcoa Eastalco site inside Quantum Frederick. Four data center buildings plus auxiliary buildings on 111.5 acres; Rowan states delivery in 2026. Per-phase MW is not stated consistently across sources, so no capacity is recorded; Rowan describes the combined three-phase campus as about 600-630 MW across 375 acres. As of 2026-09-10, status remains permitted. Beyond the Planning Commission approval article, no newer filings or status developments were found. Per-phase MW remains unstated in every source found (Rowan only quotes the combined ~600-630 MW campus figure), consistent with the absence of a recorded capacity.
Served initially from the FirstEnergy Sage Substation; Rowan plans to build an adjacent substation for a direct connection.
