Supply vs demand
EIA-860M generator inventory · projects pipeline
2.0 GW of new generation came online in Utah over the last 18 months; another 3.0 GW is in the EIA-860M pipeline (under construction or filed). Meanwhile 1.5 GW of data-center load is in construction or permitted in the state. Largest plant in the supply pipeline: Intermountain Pumped Storage Project (Millard County) — 1.0 GW of hydro, first online 2028-07.
Two bars, one scale. Demand is sorted by certainty — under construction first, then permitted, then proposed. The dashed rule marks where the supply pipeline runs out; everything to the right of it is demand on file with no supply filed against it.
