Sweetwater 1 energization April 2026
Company: IREN
What the later record shows
Outcome not yet confirmed
The May 2025 update only restates the April 2026 energization plan. The only later mention of Sweetwater, in September 2026, says the 2GW Sweetwater hub was included as base load in ERCOT Batch Zero, which does not say whether Sweetwater 1 was energized or when.
