Vantage CWL1 Newport Campus

Operating

The operator markets its CWL1 campus at Newport with 148 MW of capacity. This is a campus specification, not a published average electricity load. Additional AI deployments and phased expansion should be tracked separately from current consumption.

Where its electricity comes from

Vantage markets the campus as using 100% renewable electricity. That claim does not provide site-specific hourly supply matching or annual consumption.

Cooling, water and backup power

Free air cooling benefits from the Welsh climate. Cooling configurations vary by building, including indirect evaporative systems.

N+N power topology is published. Current generator runtime and fuel consumption are not disclosed in this profile.

Rated capacity is not present consumption. Renewable procurement claims describe contracts or certificates unless hourly matching and physical supply are evidenced. No live site meter is connected to this page.

Project location

Published facility or mapped building location. A location point is not a site boundary or a verified visitor entrance.

Markers identify sites, published points or labelled connection areas. Markers are not site boundaries or entrances. EGL2’s additional outlines and route layers are explicitly identified in the developer’s map data.
