PROJECT JUPITERForce Upgrade BLUEPRINT

In summer the heat is not used for cooling: heat-driven absorption chillers want water near 90 °C and this loop is 45–65 °C, so the greenhouses cool with evaporative pads, which use water^[97]. Greenhouses take about 1% of the heat stream on average and about 4% on the coldest night; the fans reject the rest. A megawatt (MW) is a rate of energy, like miles per hour is a rate of distance. To make it concrete we translate every MW into home furnaces: a typical furnace is rated about 90,000 BTU per hour, so 1 MW ≈ 38 furnaces^[44]. Rough equivalences, labeled as such. Heat ≈ IT load is thermodynamics, not a measured figure. Greenhouse acreage is a proposal; the site is about 819 acres with 400 in the first phase^[1].

Zero is not on the slider on purpose. Capture designs top out around 90 to 95%; the longest-running power-plant unit, Boundary Dam, captured 848,388 tonnes in 2024 at 85% availability against a 1-million-tonne design, so the slider starts at 90, not 95^[64][65]. Use before storage: curing concrete with CO₂ and making carbonate aggregate are commercial (690,000 tonnes mineralized worldwide to date; one aggregate plant takes 5,000 tonnes a year)^[95][96], so the use slider starts at 1% and grows only as buyers sign; the pipeline to storage is where most of it goes, Process 4 shrinks the whole stream as the gas share falls, and the federal 45Q credit pays $85 a ton stored or used^[89]. The rest is closed over time by blending renewable gas and hydrogen, which Bloom hardware runs on^[51], plus verified removals; HB93's 2045 net-zero definition allows methane offsets, so the physical route is a choice^[1][78]. Storage depth: CO₂ stays a dense fluid below about 800 m / 2,625 ft under impermeable cap rock^[52]. New Mexico has no permitted Class VI wells yet, so the realistic path is a pipeline to Permian Basin storage^[53]. That line crosses the same kind of land the gas pipeline has been denied on twice, and Texas Class VI reviews run about a year, so the plan installs the skids with the fuel cells but counts metered capture only from year 5^[10][53].

Brine does not have to be the end of the line: El Paso's board approved recovering about 3 MGD of drinking water and minerals from its KBH brine in 2026^[66] (the first mineral-recovery attempt there failed during commissioning, so we count the water and not the minerals^[67]), and a brine concentrator would cut the injected volume, but it needs water hotter than this 45–65 °C loop, so it is not counted here^[99][100]. Costs interpolate NMSU's 2023 figures for 1, 5 and 10 MGD plants and scale to the whole system using the study's 5 MGD ratio. Well count and home count are illustrative. Reverse osmosis is the proven method; server heat is a helper, not the engine. The county is already designing a 4 MGD plant with $15 million of Jupiter tax money^[68]; the plan asks the developer to fund the full NMSU system instead.

Geothermal is counted at a 90% capacity factor and delivered wind and solar at 40% (New Mexico wind averaged about 39% in 2023; solar is lower), and the fuel cells are assumed to throttle in proportion; the "gas full-load hours" figure is the year's energy share expressed as hours, an estimate, not a claim about any particular hour: a 24/7 load runs gas every night the wind is down. Even with every slider at maximum about half the year's energy is still gas; true zero for 2,462 MW would need about 2.7 GW of firm geothermal or about 6 GW of wind and solar plus tens of gigawatt-hours of storage, none of which is identified^[61][63]. Enhanced geothermal is itself deep injection of water and carries the same induced-seismicity rules as any injection well^[56]; the difference is zero exhaust and power around the clock. Roof areas other than the halls are scaled from the render. Rooftop solar alone is about a quarter of one percent of the load, and this card says so instead of hiding it.

Every figure on the upgraded card except the job commitment and the CO₂ purity is an industry average, not a Santa Teresa study. The site is about 819 acres with 400 in the first phase^[1]; the developers have not published which acres are unbuilt, so the greenhouse acreage and location are a proposal to be set from their site plan, not a claim.
