- Unknown No independently supported figure
No critical-IT, gross-facility, utility-request, utility-service or measured-load MW is published. Annual MWh and utilization percentages in the town plan are 2020 forecasts, not measured use or IT capacity. Backup-generator ratings and the 32 kW solar array are not data-center load or capacity and are excluded. - Location
- 760 Main Street, New Haven, VT
Exact location — The PUC order identifies the approved project at 760 Main Street (VT Route 17) in the Town of New Haven, Vermont. Exact refers only to the stated project street address, not a surveyed parcel boundary, current entrance, coordinates or building footprint. The separately opened January 30, 2020 PUC site-visit memorandum identifies the same case and address. - Physical scale
- The 2020 final order describes a two-story main operations building of approximately 18,000 square feet. This is the historical approved design for a multi-use building that includes a secondary data center, not data-hall area, as-built area, commissioned compute area or current measured size. The separate generator building is not another data-center building. Later amendments and as-built scale are not consolidated here.
What the sources support
The adopted 2025 New Haven Town Plan identifies VELCO's backup operations and data-center project. The Vermont Public Utility Commission's August 12, 2020 final order and certificate of public good authorize the New Haven Operations Facility at 760 Main Street, including a main operations building housing a secondary data center. VELCO's 2024 ESG report describes the building as nearing completion. This is a dated utility-reported construction basis, not a statement of current construction progress. The town plan's 2023 commissioning and later utilization entries are estimates supplied on November 6, 2020, not observations. The CPG requires a separate pre-operation compliance letter. That letter, completion, energization and data-center operation have not been established by the selected records.

What remains unknown
- pre-operation CPG condition 12 filing and actual operation date
- completion, commissioning, energization and current data-center operating status
- complete post-2020 amendment and compliance record, including case 20-3879-PET
- current as-built scale, data-hall area and surveyed building or parcel boundary
- separately resolved legal developer, operator, owner and tenant roles
- critical-IT, gross-facility, utility-request, utility-service and measured-load capacity
- current LEED certification disposition
