Backup engine air permit proposed
Nevada proposes to issue a Class II air permit covering the campus's stationary engines (backup generators, not supply). State agency · Jan. 2026

Campus service agreement not public
No agreement for the campus appears in a public utility commission record; the commission's large-load framework came later and is pending. News report · Oct. 2026

The campus is grid-only. On-site engines are backup power and are permitted under an air permit that keeps each pollutant under 100 tons a year. State agency · Jan. 2026
The 2023 design was two buildings and 1.5 million sq ft; the Jan. 2026 company release shows three 72 MW buildings. Total IT capacity is unchanged at 216 MW. News report · Oct. 2026

Is it running?

Evidence from space

NO₂ over the site, net of the rural background, was about the same in July–September 2026 (9 µmol/m²) as a year earlier (8), and the rural background rose 14% (15 to 17). The satellite sees no new combustion large enough to stand out here. This campus shares its satellite box with a neighboring campus at the same site.

See all campuses checked →

NO₂ over the campus and over open country (µmol/m²)

Lines: 7-day (daily) / 3-week (weekly) averages; gaps from cloud filled by straight-line interpolation; dots are raw readings. Shaded: July–September 2025 and 2026, averaging 8 and 9 µmol/m² above open country (1.1×).

What else could explain it

Cities, highways, oil and gas fields and power plants in or near the box also emit NO₂. Comparing the same months a year apart removes steady sources; a new source nearby would not cancel.
Weather moves NO₂ from day to day (wind, sunlight, cloud), and it builds up in winter. Subtracting the background box and comparing the same season a year apart removes most of that.

How this works: the Sentinel-5P satellite measures NO₂ in the air over every point on Earth once a day, around 1:30 p.m. local time, in pixels about 5.5 by 3.5 km. NO₂ comes from burning fuel (turbines, engines, traffic, power plants), so a rise over a site that open country does not share points to new combustion there. It shows combustion activity, not megawatts. The site box is about 15 km across; the background box is open country about 62 km away. We use only high-quality readings and drop days or weeks when cloud hides more than half of either box. Data: Copernicus Sentinel-5P (ESA), processed with the Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem Sentinel Hub statistics service.
