Conflicts and open questions

  • City abatement share reported as 80% (KTAB) and 85% (Business Insider); the abatement agreement itself was not located.
  • The KACU report does not say which project the 20-year Taylor County abatement covers; confirm against county minutes.
  • A planned expansion to 2.1 GW at this site was dropped, per Epoch AI; the adjacent Microsoft campus is tracked separately.
