Intelligence
The Union Pacific East Side Railyard is a strong candidate for a small data center or container-BESS deployment due to its underutilized industrial site and proximity to a 138kV substation. The key risk is the potential for increased logistics activity, which could impact the site's suitability for a data center or energy storage facility. Further assessment is needed to confirm the site's underutilization and feasibility for such a deployment.
The Union Pacific East Side Railyard is a logistics and warehouse facility with a probable underutilization of its existing infrastructure. With an estimated load of 19.91 MW and a proximity of 0.6 miles to a 138kV substation, the site is well-suited for a container-BESS or edge data center deployment, given the existing grid interconnection. The site's underutilization corroboration count of 1 suggests that there may be opportunities for repurposing or redeveloping the site for new uses, such as energy storage or data center applications. However, the key risk is the potential for increased logistics activity, which could impact the site's suitability for such a deployment. Overall, the site's characteristics make it an attractive candidate for further exploration and assessment.
