Data center water impact, IA

Iowa data centers ranked by water impact

Each campus's composite Water Impact combines modeled municipal water intake, supply-risk, treatment-chemical opportunity, and receiving-utility strain. Water intake is a modeled estimate (design-adjusted from disclosed capacity), never a metered figure.

Water intake is modeled (design-adjusted from disclosed IT capacity), not a metered withdrawal. Bands are coarse tiers; the composite Water Impact is a 0-100 confidence-weighted score.
