Provider notes
Energy. Bentaus's February 2026 announcement describes support for 'up to 200 megawatts (MW) of power capacity'; the Texarkana Gazette reports 'an initial 48MW' secured through an Electric Service Agreement. The plans also call for 'access to pipeline-quality natural gas, allowing the facility to generate power on site as the project expands.' The electric service provider is not established: SWEPCO denied involvement and Southwest Arkansas Electric Cooperative declined to discuss the project, citing a possible nondisclosure agreement - so no utility is recorded here.
What the source record says
Coordinates are the OpenStreetMap point for Mandeville, the nearest named community inside the block of parcels described by the Texarkana Gazette - 'bordered on the west by U.S. 71, on the north by Arkansas 108 and on the south roughly by Interstate 49.' This is a nearest-community approximation only; no source gives coordinates or a street address, and the pin has NOT been confirmed to fall inside the assembled tract. Landowner and co-developer: Fort Chadbourne Farm LLC and Chadbourn Infrastructure Partners LLC, both with Michael 'Jacques' Davison of Bradley, Arkansas as sole corporate officer; a third entity, Chadbourn Energy Park LLC, was formed in February 2026. About 2,300 acres were marketed as Chadbourne Ranch and sold in October 2025 for $5.165 million. Confidence is 'reported' rather than 'confirmed' because the two newspaper accounts are from the same ownership group and the developer has not confirmed status; the 200 MW figure is the developer's own announcement, not a utility or permit record.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.

Compute Atlas 1.34.1 with retained prior rows and publication holds. This is a DataCenterData composite, not an unmodified publisher edition. This row uses the captured source from 1.34.1, source as of 2026-10-14T20:40:52.293Z.
That does not mean the row is wrong, and it does not mean no reviewed record exists for the same place. A link is added only when an identifier or source establishes the match.
