This dataset documents 30 large-scale gas-fueled energy campuses and associated infrastructure built to serve hyperscale data centers in the United States. It reconstructs each project as an integrated socio-technical asset, combining land control, power generation, fuel access, and supply arrangements, and includes coded indicators for three de-risking channels.
Use Cases
- Analyze the relationship between project location and coded indicators of revenue certainty to assess regional financing patterns.
- Model the correlation between generation capacity and de-risking channels like delivery certainty to understand power reliability strategies.
- Investigate how development strategy interacts with cost shifting mechanisms across the 30 documented campuses.
Strengths
- Documents 30 specific, large-scale energy infrastructure projects.
- Includes coded indicators for three specific de-risking channels: revenue certainty, delivery certainty, and cost shifting.
- Data compiled from regulatory filings, developer disclosures, and independent reporting.
Limitations
- Sample size is limited to 30 projects, which may not represent the entire population of such developments.
- Coding is based on documented evidence and described as conservative, which may underrepresent certain project characteristics.
- The dataset's temporal coverage and specific geographic scope beyond the U.S. are not detailed.
