The underlying provider record is retained. These notes add source-attributed context and flag conflicts; any withheld value is explained separately. They do not certify current operation.
- status history (provider entry dated 2026-09-17): This provider entry is dated 2026-09-17 (the provider's observation date). Its own note cites an approval dated 2024-01-12 and an article dated 2026-08-13; neither was retrieved here.
Reported details
Source-reported by Compute Atlas; not independently verified by DataCenterData. Provider wording is kept; long provider notes are shortened and marked …; unknown is not zero; none of these values is totaled, ranked or compared.
- Electric utility
- Portland General Electric (PGE)
These reviews flag conflicting scope, inconsistent source text or support that has not been established. A withheld value may appear in the explanation, but is not displayed as an established field. The upstream row remains attributed under Sources.
- Cooling: Previously held pending provider-field review. The concern has not been resolved by an independent source review for this captured edition; the field remains withheld.
What the source record says
Confirmed as planned 2-building campus, 100+MW, described as in development/under construction per QTS's own directory listing ('In Development'). Candidate 1465196736 is the same site, ~0.2km away; kept this one, dropped the other as duplicate.
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
- 2026-09-17 · source-reported permitted
Hillsboro Herald (2026-08-13) reports the QTS North/HIL3 campus at Schaff and Pubols (case DR-014-23, approved 2024-01-12, 750,000+ sq ft with generators and a PGE substation) is 'approved. Done deal' but 'ground has not broken yet' — i.e. permitted, not under construction. Cleanview's Oregon list likewise carries QTS Hillsboro 3 DC1/DC2 as planned with no year.
Sources and attribution
These sources are listed for the whole row. Unless a figure links to its own source, the provider does not mark which one gave it, so a figure may not appear in every source.

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.
