Beacon's Westline Now 2.4 MW Project, Major Polluter


The neighborly Beacon Data Center team plans to foul West Texas air with their onsite power plant. 

The Texas Commission for Environmental Quality received an application from Beacon's Westline project for permission to launch contaminants into the air.  They've determined it is complete.

Beacon would begin construction January 1, 2027.  New Year's Day must not be a holiday in Canada.


The application indicates Beacon's Westline would be a significant generator of electricity as well as a major polluter.  Some details from the submission are reproduced below.



I have a different name for TCEQ.  It is the:
Texas Commission for Scheduling Pollution Emissions & Water Table Drawdowns (TC-SPEW-TD).  
I hope someday they prove me wrong.  

Capital markets may not be as permissive as Texas "regulators."
