“Retrieved by Radar” is when we obtained the source for this review. “Public-source check date” applies only to the facts cited here. Neither date means the project itself changed or independently verifies every field.
Member research: available contractors and engineers, exact reported values and capacity evidence, detailed sources and permitting history, plus tracker CSV export. Availability and verification vary by record.
Project overview
Batavia’s proposed data center is on industrial land in the city’s northeast area. City-approved service agreements address utilities and the requirements the facility must meet as development proceeds. The city’s September 2026 update describes a planned facility; those agreements establish an approval milestone, not proof that construction is complete or operations have started.
Latest review attempt: Oct 10, 2026 — inconclusive. The review did not resolve every question; the prior research check date is retained.
The historical date comes from the original workbook. It is not a newly completed source check.
