Coordinates published for the Matador power station; the campus lies outside Amarillo city limits
Key data: Latitude 35.2837621, longitude -101.568974

Owner of the power station listed as the project parent itself rather than a shell
Key data: Fermi America LLC
Limitation: Land-holding subsidiaries, if any, were not identified in deed records
Fermi America executed an electric service agreement with Xcel's Texas utility for interim grid supply
Key data: Electric Service Agreement with Southwestern Public Service Company (SPS), a subsidiary of Xcel Energy, for up to 200 MW on the 115-kV system
Limitation: Agreement docket/tariff reference not published; on-site generation build-out is separate from this ESA
A signed water supply agreement with the City of Amarillo draws on a named well field with a stated maximum delivery
Key data: Water Supply Agreement executed 2025-10-30 with City of Amarillo; source Carson County Well Field; 2.5 million gallons per day maximum; two new wells
Limitation: Groundwater district permitting for the new wells is not addressed in the agreement text fetched
City of Amarillo is the water contracting party even though the site is outside city limits; the city maintains a dedicated project page
Key data: City of Amarillo project page for the Fermi project; site outside city limits

Project-level queue record: estimated load 11,000 MW (full-build target later raised toward 17,000 MW) against ~6,000 MW of planned on-site generation; status **Delayed**, construction paused early 2026 pending a final Clean Air Permit. Grid exposure is limited to an SPS electric service agreement covering up to 200 MW; ~2,000 MW reported secured.
Key data: 11,000 MW estimated load; SPS ESA up to 200 MW of grid power; status "Delayed"
Status date: 2026-06-17 (record last updated)
Limitation: Third-party queue tracker; ERCOT does not publish per-project large-load queue positions publicly. No queue number/position exists in the record.
