Said by Vantage · company statement in Vantage Millersport campus FAQ →
What the evidence establishes
No such guarantee has been independently established. Vantage describes a separate power supply, but plans do not establish future electricity-bill effects. The hearing outcome and certificate remain unverified. Shown as the company’s statement, not as a finding either way.
Biggest limitation
The hearing notice is historical. Its outcome and any certificate remain unverified; the follow-up is overdue.
Checked
17 September 2026 · Next review: Follow-up overdue since 17 September 2026 — Official OPSB docket 26-0160-EL-BGN after the 17 September 2026 hearing. A newer evidence review is still needed. · History (3) →

Evidence

What the evidence supports

Vantage says the proposed Fairfield Energy Center would power its adjacent campus without connecting to the local or regional grid. A preserved OPSB summary describes a proposed 1,300 MW gas facility with up to 1,000 MW of battery storage; the developer instead reports up to 1,350 MW net generation and approximately 1,040 MW storage. Those figures are not data-center IT capacity. The previously reviewed notice scheduled an evidentiary hearing for 17 September 2026; no hearing outcome or certificate has been verified. The plans cannot establish future retail-bill effects as an observed outcome.

Field Power / developer claim

From Only company descriptions of the proposed adjacent power facility were cited.

To The preserved official OPSB case summary is cited separately from the developer's differing generation and storage figures.

Why Primary-record follow-up confirmed the proposal and hearing date while preserving the unresolved MW discrepancy and outcome hold.

Field Power / developer claim

From The source link used an OPSB case-summary URL that now returns 404.

To The working source link now opens Fairfield Energy's live project page, which identifies OPSB case 26-0160-EL-BGN.

Why The historical OPSB summary is described as preserved evidence rather than presented as a working page; the official case-summary URL returns 404 and the Docketing Information System rejected a direct case request during this check.
