A verdict applies only to the wording shown.

Company claims are shown as stated; they are not findings.

Question reviewed

Treating Ohio's 85% data-center tariff as proof that residents cannot be affected by data-center-driven power costs.

Verdict on the wording above: Partially supported

Question examined by DataCenterData · Ohio

Evidence and limits

Evidence limitation: Whether generation, transmission, capacity-market, wholesale-market or pre-tariff contracts can affect household bills remains a separate question from this tariff arithmetic. The saved record holds the tariff sheets and the PUCO docket listing, not a PUCO or Ohio Consumers' Counsel analysis of household bill effects and not the text of the 5 August 2026 order or the 30 September 2026 entry on rehearing.

Checked 3 November 2026

Public statement checked

Statement checked: Fairfield Energy says it submitted an OPSB application for up to 1,350 MW of net gas generation and approximately 1,040 MW of battery storage.

Verdict on the statement above: Company claim

Said by Fairfield Energy · Vantage Data Centers OH2 Millersport campus

Question: Has the proposed Fairfield Energy Center received its power-siting certificate?

Answer to the question: The reviewed evidence does not establish a certificate. Fairfield Energy describes an application, which is not an approval. The September hearing notice is historical, and the outcome remains unverified. Shown as the company’s statement, not as a finding either way.

Evidence and limits

The underlying filing, hearing outcome and any certificate remain unverified. Company generation figures are not data-center IT capacity.

Evidence limitation: Underlying application and staff report; reason for the official/company MW discrepancy; hearing outcome; any OPSB certificate or construction authorization.

Checked 17 September 2026

Public statement checked

Statement checked: The natural-gas power facility described as adjacent to Vantage's planned Millersport campus means the campus will not affect electricity costs for local residents or businesses.

Verdict on the statement above: Company claim

Said by Vantage · Vantage Data Centers OH2 Millersport campus

Question: Does Millersport's proposed power plant guarantee no impact on electricity bills?

Answer to the question: 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.

Evidence and limits

The hearing notice is historical. Its outcome and any certificate remain unverified; the follow-up is overdue.

Evidence limitation: The underlying OPSB application, hearing outcome, certificate status, and future effect on retail bills.

What this covers. 13 checked claims so far about projects in Ohio. That is because those are the Ohio claims DataCenterData has checked, not a count of claims or of data centers. Where a state, operator, project or topic shows no checked claim, read it as “not yet checked by DataCenterData”.

What a verdict means. A verdict applies only to the wording shown and the evidence linked on the check date. Where a separate question appears beside a statement checked, the verdict is about that statement, and the question has its own answer. “Unknown” means the reviewed evidence did not establish the point; it never means zero or false.
