Facts

Signal notes

All attributes trace to a single source (The Colorado Sun, 2025-08-18), so aggregate confidence is medium despite internal consistency; no independent corroboration. land_acres omitted as a plain metric: the source gives a range ("~65-67 acres") rather than a single figure, and picking or averaging a value would invent precision the source does not carry (KB-0002). Recorded here instead: land is reported as approximately 65-67 acres. investment_usd sourced as "$1 billion+"; recorded as 1000000000 as a stated floor — actual figure may be higher. capacity_mw sourced as 177 MW, described as "projected to become Colorado's largest single electric load"; the source does not specify IT-load vs utility-load basis, so capacity_mw_basis is unspecified (the "electric load" framing hints at utility/grid load but is not definitive).
