| Claim / measurement | Scope and status | As of | Evidence and accounting |
|---|---|---|---|
| 36 MW Unspecified power | SEL2 first phase Operational · incremental | 2024-10-16 | Reported claim ↗ Excluded from capacity totals. Announcement date; rated capacity, not demonstrated utilization. Original release does not explicitly distinguish IT and facility power. |
| 60 MW Unspecified power | SEL3 second phase Under Construction · incremental | 2025-07-10 | Reported claim ↗ Excluded from capacity totals. Announcement date; future addition, not operational capacity. |
| 96 MW Unspecified power | Entire campus after SEL3 completion Under Construction · cumulative | 2025-07-10 | Conflicting claim ↗ Excluded from capacity totals. Announcement date; ultimate mixed-status campus scope. Conflicts with older totals; not added to phase claims. |
| ≥100 MW Unspecified power | Ultimate campus described at SEL2 launch Planned · cumulative | 2024-10-16 | Conflicting claim ↗ Excluded from capacity totals. Announcement date. Source writes 100+ MW; preserved as a lower-bound claim. Differs from subsequent 96 MW total. |
| 120 MW IT load | Historical full Bupyeong joint-venture development Planned · cumulative | 2022-05-05 | Conflicting claim ↗ Excluded from capacity totals. Industry article publication date, not commissioning date. Historical total IT power conflicts with later campus scope; operator sheet and developer article also retain 120 MW without an explicit basis. |
| 120 MW Unspecified power | Bupyeong development described by SK ecoplant Under Construction · cumulative | 2024-01-05 | Conflicting claim ↗ Excluded from capacity totals. Developer article date; historical development description, not proof of delivered capacity or a separate addition. |
