Site is in AEP Ohio service territory. Brownfield location retains former plant's high-capacity grid infrastructure, which is a primary site-selection advantage. Aligned is publicly exploring on-site SMR/nuclear additions but no confirmed agreement. Nuclear would be future supplemental supply.
No cooling type or water consumption data disclosed. Former coal plant had access to Muskingum River cooling water infrastructure; Aligned has not confirmed whether this will be utilized.
Community sentiment
Strong positive reception at October 2025 groundbreaking. Coshocton County Commissioners and Port Authority executive director spoke favorably. Site revitalization fills a significant local tax and employment gap left by AEP plant closure (plant formerly provided ~10% of River View Local Schools' annual budget and employed ~600 workers). Broader Ohio policy context: a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban large data centers was under debate at the time of announcement; some community and policy advocates cited this project as evidence of the economic value data centers bring to rural counties.
