Claim · 2024-03-04 · announcement · Stated in source · Supported

Talen announced on 4 March 2024 the sale of its Cumulus data-centre campus in north-eastern Pennsylvania, connected to its Susquehanna nuclear plant; its release does not name the buyer, which Talen’s results of 14 March 2024 name as AWS, as the cross-family check read both. World Nuclear News later reported the 960 MW campus sold to AWS with a long-term power supply agreement.

Supporting evidence: primary · 2 sources; Context: secondary · 1 source

Date: 2024-03-04 · announcement
Figure measures: not stated by the source
Stage: announced
Quantity: exact · 960 MW (as worded: '960 MW Cumulus data centre campus')

Scope and limitsTalen’s releases rest on the cross-family check’s reading of Internet Archive captures; Talen’s investor site refused this admission (HTTP 403). The reported terms (minimum commitments ramping in 120 MW steps from 2025, a one-time option to cap at 480 MW) are the reporter’s account. The sale price is not recorded. Amazon described the arrangement in October 2024 (recorded separately).

Status and meaning

Editorial status. Not reviewed by an editor. An exploratory record that no editor has accepted. This status does not say whether a person has read any linked passage. Each evidence record above shows how it was checked.

Relation. A stated agreement on electricity supply, a power purchase, a plant restart or the development of generation, at the stage the parties state. It is not delivery of power, and an agreement to explore is not a contract.

Date. Date of Talen’s release, as the cross-family check read it in a capture.
