Conflicts and open questions
- Aligned says it is building and paying for the dedicated electrical infrastructure with Xcel Energy.
- Aligned's release says about $5 billion would flow into the regional economy; that is not stated as project cost.
- The site is just outside Abernathy city limits; the mayor discussed possible annexation.
- Aligned's release places the campus in Hale County; the road location (I-27 and FM 54) comes from KCBD.
