What's happening in Washoe County
Facilities here with disclosed capacity draw 50 MW from the local grid. Data-center load on this scale is the single biggest driver of recent capacity-market price increases — costs that flow through to every ratepayer in the service territory, not just the operators.
Below: every tracked facility in the county, the active state legislation that names it or its county, and local news. Commissioner vote records arrive in a later release; the placeholders show where that accountability data will land.
Every tracked facility
| Facility | Operator | Status | MW |
|---|---|---|---|
| Webb Data Center Reno | — | Under construction | 28 |
| Centra Reno | — | Under construction | 12 |
| Oppidan Data Center Reno | — | Under construction | 8 |
