How sources are used
Public and regulatory records establish confirmed facts. Company materials establish what a proponent has said, but not that a projected outcome has occurred.
Transparent evidence
Research, sources, and methodology
The records behind ADCW evidence profiles and verified listings, organized so readers can inspect the evidence directly.
Research index
The source directory covers every published project record. The Issues page connects recurring public-interest questions to the official records that help answer them.
Source policy
How ADCW decides what to publish
Start with primary records
Municipal, regulatory, government, utility, and proponent documents are reviewed before secondary reporting is used for context.
Separate the speaker from the claim
A permit is not a projection, a company statement is not an operating result, and approval of supporting power infrastructure is not approval of the data centre itself.
Keep uncertainty visible
Missing, conflicting, or unresolved information is identified plainly instead of being treated as zero or quietly omitted.
Verify before publication
A record is published only after its project identity, status, location precision, and source base have been reviewed.
The inventory is a best-known public record, not a claim of completeness. Alberta has no single authoritative registry for every data centre project, and public information changes over time.
