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.

Source notes
Five potential sites in the Eielson area: one near southeast North Pole, two across the Richardson Highway, one mid-installation and one on the north side. Coordinates are approximate (base location). The multi-installation acreage total is not attributed to this site.
Three Eielson sites outside the fence rely on the GVEA grid. Two inside-fence sites connect to the base's aging coal power plant. GVEA said it cannot currently support a large data center.
