Amazon's Adams County project page says cooling water would come from the Ohio River at a projected approximately 19.7 million gallons per year, with domestic water capped at 40,000 gallons per day from Adams County Regional Water District. These are company/project estimates; final permits, discharge conditions, and operating use remain open.
PJM's Dayton-2026-001 supplemental filing describes an AES Ohio customer request near the Stuart Substation ramping from 100 MW in November 2028 to 1,300 MW in March 2032. The existing 400-1100 MW dataset range remains an attributed project/load lead; the filing describes requested new load and does not establish approved, energized, generation, or IT-load capacity.
