A large load stalls 18 months before energization

T H E SI T U ATI ON
A 500 MW hyperscale customer has a signed
service agreement in your footprint.
Eighteen months before energization, the county
adopts a one-year moratorium, and the state
makes local approval a condition of permits.
The developer says it may move the project to a
neighboring state.
Q U E S T I O N S
1 Who in your firm hears about it first—and how fast does it
reach risk?
2 What is already committed: generation, transmission,
hedges, collateral?
3 Does the customer contract address a moratorium or
change in law?
4 If the load moves, who carries the cost of what was built
for it?
Hypothetical scenario for discussion only. It is not based on any specific company or project.
