Up to 3.6 million gallons a day
About 20,000 gallons a day
What we are proposing
20,000 – 50,000 gallons a day
We are building the low-water kind. About the same as a small neighborhood — not the giant kind you have heard horror stories about.
Think of it like a car radiator — the same water keeps circulating. We use about 95% less water than the old wasteful kind.
If we break any of these promises, the town can shut us down. That is the law.
The State of Michigan already wrote the rules to protect you.
By law, big customers like us must:
In plain English: we pay our own way. Your bill does not pay for us.
Before we ever turn on, we have to build:
We bring new power into the area. We do not take any away from your home.
Your lights stay on. Your heat stays on. Period.
When we move in, Consumers Energy invests in better wires and stronger power for your neighborhood. That is a win for you.
It is not a factory.
Nothing gets built. Nothing gets shipped. No trucks lined up day and night.
All it does:
What you will NOT see here:
From the road, it looks like a quiet office building. Because that is basically what it is.
You do not have to take our word for it. The state of Michigan holds the leash.
From your front porch, it will be quieter than a passing car.
Your tax bill does not pay for this. Ours pays for yours.
Low-tax acreage. No infrastructure investment. No new revenue for roads, schools, or first responders.
Data centers are among the largest contributors to local tax bases — a long-term, stable revenue stream tied to real, fixed infrastructure.
Not a one-time check — a sustained expansion of the township's financial capacity.
Existing land becomes a long-term funding mechanism for community priorities.
"Will a data center use water and power?"
"Will this project be safe, locked down by law, and good for our town?"
These places are getting built somewhere. The only question is whether Leoni gets the tax money, jobs, and protections, or whether the next town over does.
Your phone, your bank, your doctor, your kids' schools, all of it already runs on data centers. The only question is where they live.
Not whether they get built.
But where they get built and who gets the benefits.
