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
- Proposed
Spanish Fork City Council tabled a vote on the municipal-code amendments (Title 15) needed to permit the project, pending written council concerns due August 24, 2026.
Underlying source
Source notes
Proposed retrofit of a ~1M sq ft former Fingerhut distribution warehouse at the mouth of Spanish Fork Canyon; faced significant resident opposition at an August 20, 2026 public hearing; not yet zoned for the use. Subsidies checked at the municipal tier (2026-09-05): no site-level subsidy found. The company is on record declining to seek one: "Volition is not requesting any tax breaks, Chavez said, and instead would be generating around $44 million in tax revenue for the city, school district and other taxing entities." No Spanish Fork RDA/CRA project area or participation agreement naming Volition or the site was located. Utah's EDTIF programme excludes data centres and the UCA 59-12-104 exemption is self-executing.
Proposed energy-independent design using Bloom Energy fuel cells for on-site power generation, per servercountry.org; closed-loop water cooling system.
