Timeline
Land clearing begins.
Building 1 operational, based on it being 6 months after roof was complete, infrastructure looked complete for 5 months.
95 MWBuilding 2 has 3 cooling towers installed.
95 MWBuilding 2 is operational, based on it being 8 months since the roof was complete, and surrounding infrastructure looks just completed (finishing the cooling towers).
189 MWConfirmation that there's no obvious construction happening for Building 2. Building 3 roof started.
189 MWConfident that Building 2 is operational
189 MWBuilding 3 has all backup generators in place but they are still being installed. Two cooling towers have fans on them, with more underway. To the south of Building 3, more land has been cleared and there's a new carpark. This suggests another building will soon start construction.
189 MWBuilding 3 appears almost complete, with only minimal construction work and equipment remaining. The cooling towers are spaced apart in an unusual way, but there's no obvious sign that more will be installed before operation. Buildings 4 and 5 haven't started construction yet, the cleared land is still empty.
189 MWBuilding 3 is operational (estimate). Based on there being minimal construction work as of May 15.
284 MWBuilding 4 is operational. Expect a 4th building because there's enough land cleared for it. Assuming the foundation starts at the end of May 2026 and it takes a similar time to Building 3 from foundation to operational (1 year 8 months).
379 MWBuilding 5 is operational. We expect a 5th building because there's enough land cleared for one. We assume a roughly 6-month delay after Building 4.
