State incentives for AI compute; grid reliability a stated risk.
Supply as reported: Grid with solar
A photoreal aerial of this facility as specified: halls, towers, substation and supply, placed in the landscape SAM measured.
Pulls a satellite view of the site and asks Segment Anything 3.1 for buildings, surface water, solar arrays and open land. The masks become hectares and distances, which replace the country priors for land and water in every estimate of this site, labelled as measured.
Hyderabad AI campus does not clear the floors as proposed, but the alternative "Hydro PPA + grid" does. Proceed only if the supply mix is changed before permitting; the build plan below is that alternative.
