Every figure above is computed from the records on this page at build time. Power is summed only where a project disclosed it; nothing is estimated.
What has been disclosed in Maricopa County
| Figure | Disclosed total | Disclosed | Not disclosed | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Power | Not disclosed | 0 | 6 | |

| Permanent jobs | Not disclosed | 0 | 6 | |
| Tax each year | Not disclosed | 0 | 6 |
Summed only where a record disclosed the figure; a record with no figure adds nothing and is counted as not disclosed. Water is summed per day and per year separately, as the sources stated it, and never converted. A tax claim given as a range is summed at both ends. Nothing here is modeled or estimated by the record.
By what the facilities are for

Maricopa County, year by year
On the record as of September 8, 2026.
The chart counts what is on the record: 6 published projects in Maricopa County, with 114 dated events, 11 of them jurisdiction actions. A project counts in a year by the status its history shows at the end of that year, and its capacity, water and noise figures are the ones disclosed for it now, applied to every year it is on the record. Capacity is summed only where a source disclosed it; the count of projects without a disclosed figure sits beside every sum. A year with nothing on it has nothing on the record yet, which is not the same as nothing having happened.
