Data centers in Sarpy County, NE

Everything on file with the regulator, added up. Every figure links to the filing it came from.

6data center sites

6 permitted facilities.

These facilities hold active air permits in EPA's national registry. Groundwork has not yet read NE's permit documents, so generator counts and permitted emissions show as pending here — unlike Virginia, where every figure is read from the permit itself.

What this does — and doesn't — mean.

It is smaller than it sounds

These are emergency backup generators. They are permitted to run during grid outages and for routine testing — typically tens of hours a year, not continuously. A permit is a ceiling on what a site may emit, not a measurement of what it does emit.

A permit also is not a building. An issued permit establishes approval; it does not establish that anything is built, energised or running.

It is bigger than any one filing shows

No single permit discloses the total permitted in this county. That number exists only because 6 separately-published filings were added together. Each one, read alone, looks routine.

What NE publishes

Groundwork has this state’s facilities from EPA’s national air-permit registry, but has not yet read the state’s own permit documents. Generator counts and permitted emissions therefore show as pending.
