Power over time

facility power · 5 milestones
Every milestone
  1. 19 Jul 2024 63 MW Building 1 is operational, based on default roof-to-operational time.
  2. 28 Jan 2025 63 MW Building 2 is being retrofitted from a warehouse. The roof is being painted white, and cooling towers and a new substation are being built just south of the building (based on later imagery).
  3. 19 Oct 2025 63 MW The new substation for Building 2 looks mostly complete, half of the cooling towers are installed. The black patch in the top left of the building suggests that the new roof is not quite complete.
  4. 26 May 2026 63 MW Building 2 looks almost complete, but still appears to have three cooling towers missing. We therefore expect another 3 months until full operation.
  5. 6 Sep 2026 442 MW Building 2 is operational, confirmed via RAAD drone imagery of spinning cooling tower fans on September 8th.
