Provider notes
Energy. CEC Small Power Plant Exemption 22-SPPE-03: 44 diesel-fired generators rated 2.75 MW each — 40 to replace the data center's utility supply on loss of power and 4 to support redundant critical cooling and building/life-safety loads.
What the source record says
Single-source on the substance (the CEC project page), hence confidence "reported". The owner of record is a single-purpose LLC; no ultimate operator is asserted because none was confirmed in a fetched source. Building square footage and data-hall count circulated in secondary summaries are deliberately omitted.
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
- 2022-11-17 · source-reported permitted
Small Power Plant Exemption application filed for the Martin Backup Generating Facility; CEC status is Exempted.
Sources and attribution

State or local registry record
What a state or local government record says at this same street address. The record is cited, not republished. It does not establish that a data center is operating, its capacity, or its owner or operator unless the record says that role. It is not added to the counts on this page.

What this record does not establish
- That a permit, certification, tax status, or application means an operating data center.
- Current IT capacity, utility load, or generation capacity.
- Who operates the site. A company named in the record is not the operator unless the record says so.
- Cooling redundancy. Mentioned equipment is not a design rating.
- Whether the record covers one building, a campus, or a suite, beyond the unit label the record itself uses.
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.
