Homer City Energy Campus

High-priority Homer City redevelopment with a Pennsylvania DEP permit library and reported onsite natural-gas generation plan. The 4,500 MW dataset figure remains generation/project-scale context; the reviewed sources do not establish energized service, data-center IT load, workload allocation, or facility water quantity.

Compute Workload

This panel tracks what the facility is for without assuming that every project is AI training, inference, or cloud capacity.

Undisclosed / unknownUnknown

No source-backed workload, customer, hardware, or training/inference allocation is attached to this record yet.

Workload classification remains unknown in the reviewed record.

Public Money

Source dataset project_cost field reports $10 billion; public funding records still need local review.

Water

Source reviewed September 9, 2026: Pennsylvania DEP's Homer City redevelopment page lists the campus site, active air-quality and water-permit materials, NPDES applications, and related records, but the reviewed page does not establish a data-center water source, cooling quantity, withdrawal, consumption, or wastewater-service amount. Permit records concern the broader redevelopment and power infrastructure and should not be treated as data-center water use.

Power

Source reviewed September 9, 2026: Pennsylvania DEP describes a more than 3,200-acre natural-gas-powered data-center campus at the former 2 GW coal plant and lists current air-quality permits; Axios reports the planned plant's initial 4,500 MW output, including about 3,700 MW for data centers and 700–800 MW for the grid, with first generation expected in early 2028. These are planned generation/campus-output figures, not confirmed energized capacity or data-center IT load; the dataset's 4,500 MW remains unclassified project/power context.
