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

    Swarm Systems CEO Amir Atefi presented to the Marshalltown City Council seeking a purchase contract for 21 acres of city-owned land in the Edgewood Industrial Park to conduct due diligence; the council passed a 120-day data center moratorium the same night.

    Underlying source

Source notes

Building size is reported inconsistently: the Times Republican account of the Aug. 26, 2026 council presentation says 125,000 sq ft, while Business Record reports 150,000 sq ft. Jobs were described as a 50-60 permanent range; the lower bound is recorded. No MW capacity was stated. Coordinates are approximate — the point sits at the JBS Marshalltown industrial site, next to which the Edgewood Industrial Park city-owned parcels lie; no specific parcel has been identified publicly.

Developer told the council there would be no on-site power generation; the facility would tie into the electrical grid.
