‘Tech Campus’ Revealed as Mega Data Center Devouring Water and Power—Residents Caught Off Guard
In Doña Ana County, New Mexico, a project initially described as a 'technology campus' turned out to be Project Jupiter, a massive AI data center that will use huge amounts of water and electricity. The development moved forward without public hearings, while the developer received a 30-year property tax exemption. Construction was suspended by the state Supreme Court after lawsuits over excessive water extraction and the alleged forgery of resident support letters.
