What the source record says
North of US Highway 30, near Clinton's airport. QTS has not filed a formal site plan; the city is still drafting a data-center ordinance. No confirmed MW or $ figure exists yet - local coverage describes it only as a potential 'multibillion-dollar investment.' Local TV coverage frames this as an 'AI data center' but QTS's own statements avoid the AI label. Coordinates are approximate.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
