What the source record says
Enterprise data center. The DNREC permit covers twelve diesel emergency generators: six at 19.6 MMBtu/hr, two at 19.8 and four at 20.3, each described in the DNREC memo as 3,058 HP. The original permit applications date to May 28, 2003. The 2021 amendment removed SCR systems from generators 5–8 and capped each generator at 124 hours/year. DNREC's public notice gives the address as Newark, while the permit itself says Bear. No IT capacity is published, so capacityMw is left unset. dcmap.us shows an 'estimated' 34.934 MW that comes from no primary source and is not used. The latest primary evidence of operation is the December 2021 permit action. Coordinates are a US Census geocode of the street address.
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.
