Provider notes
Energy. Developer has requested 500 MW from Ameren, which is studying whether the grid can support the load; Cloverleaf states the data center will pay for all required generation and transmission upgrades.
Water. Closed-loop recycled-water cooling with an initial fill of about 1 million gallons and roughly 32,000 gallons per day ongoing. Cloverleaf's municipal presentation states no groundwater wells would be used, domestic water only.
Community. About 400 residents attended a 4.5-hour City of Troy meeting in February 2026; petitions circulated against the project while union representatives spoke in support.
What the source record says
Four data center buildings plus substation, office and warehouse proposed on farmland off Formosa Road near Collinsville Road. Cloverleaf is a powered-land developer; no end tenant has been named. A permanent-jobs estimate of 100-200 was given as a range and is not recorded as a single value. Coordinates are derived from the mapped road intersection and are approximate.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
Status history supplied by the source
- 2026-09-12 · source-reported proposed
No special-use permit application had been filed as of February 2026; site moved from farmland north of the interstate to farmland off Formosa Road after church-proximity objections.

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.
