What the source record says
~2,000-acre land bank near Alva, Woods County, with a secured 1.6 GW power allocation on the Southwest Power Pool grid; initial power ramp scheduled for 2028. IREN's land-bank expansion beyond its operational Texas campuses (Childress, Sweetwater). Single-tracker source → confidence reported. Coordinates are the Alva area centroid. Capacity re-sourced 2026-08-08: IREN's own Oklahoma page states "1,600 MW", "2,000 Acres" and "2028 Substation Energization", status "IN DEVELOPMENT" — replacing an aggregator listing as the basis for the figure. Public-reception check (2026-09-10): Checked baxtel.com's project profile (2026-09-10) -- it covers only technical/permitting facts (2,000-acre site on the SPP grid) plus one unrelated statewide article (Oklahoma's data-center ratepayer-protection bill, 2026-05-16). No hearing, resident reaction, or local-official statement specific to the Woods County/Alva site was found in this source.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
