Straight-line distances. Nearest named waterway via the USGS National Hydrography Dataset; nearest transmission line via HIFLD. Baseline water stress and groundwater trend describe the surrounding hydrological basin (WRI Aqueduct 4.0, CC BY 4.0) — not this facility’s measured water use. Principal-aquifer system underlying the location (USGS, mapped at 1:2,500,000 — regional context, not site hydrogeology).
Supplies power to Amazon (AWS)Company-level / grid-region purchase — no single named campus.
A 20-year, 1,200 MW PPA (of the ~2,400 MW two-unit plant) supports Amazon's adjacent 'Project Spectrum' data-center campus (~$5B, Amazon Data Services) advancing through Somervell County approvals. Project Spectrum is not yet a tracked Compute Atlas campus, so no poweredFacilityIds is set. Distinct from the separately-tracked 'Comanche Circle' (comanche-circle-sailfish-hood-county-tx), an unrelated project in the same corridor.
Existing two-unit pressurized-water reactor station (~2,400 MW), operating since the 1990s and delivering into ERCOT. 1,200 MW is contracted to AWS under a 20-year PPA.
Vistra announced a 20-year, 1,200 MW power-purchase agreement from Comanche Peak with an initially undisclosed customer (option to extend 20 more years).
Amazon and Meta agreements boost Vistra nuclear plantsVistra's Q4/FY2025 earnings confirmed Amazon (AWS) as the customer; delivery targets Q4 2027, ramping to the full 1,200 MW by 2032. Somervell County separately advanced a development agreement (Feb 2026) for AWS's adjacent ~$5B 'Project Spectrum' data-center campus on Vistra land.
