What the source record says
Proposed on land south of Penny Road and west of Pond Gate Drive in Barrington Hills. Acreage, building count and power capacity were never disclosed. The $2 billion figure is the investment stated for this site, not a company-wide total. Coordinates are the mapped Penny Road corridor and are approximate; the county is omitted because Barrington Hills spans four counties and the source does not identify which one contains the parcel.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
Status history supplied by the source
- 2026-09-12 · reported cancelled
