Provider notes

Energy. Project commits to a minimum of 50% of all energy from carbon-free resources; development includes an on-site power substation.

Community. Platte County Presiding Commissioner Scott Fricker publicly said he cannot support Project Kestrel. He objected to tax subsidies for large corporations, potential water and electricity rate impacts, and limited transparency from Port KC, and called for Port KC reform. No votes or lawsuits reported.

What the source record says

Six hyperscale data center buildings planned (up to 1.8M sq ft total) on ~379-430 acres within Hunt Midwest KCI 29 Logistics Park, Platte County. Distinct from Google Project Mica (google-project-mica-kc-northland-mo), a separate campus ~9km east in Clay County. OPERATOR ATTRIBUTION, checked 2026-09-10: the fetched sources name the developer only as Shenandoah Computing LLC. KSHB names Shenandoah as the applicant and mentions Google solely in a context sentence about campuses ALREADY under construction in the Northland; Port KC does not mention Shenandoah at all. No fetched source ties Shenandoah to Google or any named hyperscaler, so no end-tenant is recorded here. An aggregator listing attributes this to Google; this dataset has previously found that aggregator wrong about an operator, so it is not relied on. INVESTMENT, checked 2026-09-10: the $100B figure is the ceiling of a conduit bond series Shenandoah asked Port KC to authorize (KSHB: "a series of conduit bonds that could reach $100 billion"), NOT a stated project investment, so no investmentUsd is recorded. Port KC approved a Chapter 100-style industrial development plan on 2025-08-28 with a 35-year real/personal property tax exemption and sales-tax relief on construction materials; no single abatement dollar total was stated, only projected net new tax revenue of ~$110M across all phases, so no structured subsidies entry is recorded. Local press (fox4kc, 2025-11) reports Platte County’s presiding commissioner publicly opposed the tax-break package; that page 403’d and archive.org was rate-limiting at retrieval, so this is an unverified lead for a future refresh, not a sourced community finding. Phase 1 was slated to begin 2026; not confirmed started.

Capacity is not ranked or totaled here.

Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
