What the source record says
Codenamed Project Accelerate; Engineered Land Solutions worked with Crosland Southeast on the filing. Capacity is omitted deliberately: the 'up to 600 MW' figure describes the withdrawn proposal's electricity request, not a built or permitted capacity. Re-checked 2026-09-10: the record is accurate. The withdrawal date (Oct. 8, 2025) and reason (public opposition) were confirmed again; no new filings or developments found at this site since.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
