US Data Center Map: 2026 Project Tracker

Large US data center projects, 100 MW and up, tracked from announcement to opening. Every figure is checked against its source and the map is updated monthly.

Hiring for a data center project?

This map tracks large US data center projects, 100 MW and up, from first announcement through construction to opening. Each project shows the operator, location, planned capacity, status, investment and announced jobs, with a link to the press release, filing or news report the figures come from. We check every row against its source and update the tracker monthly.

Use the filters to narrow the map by state, status or size, or search for an operator such as Meta, Microsoft or Crusoe. Click any circle for the project details.

What the map shows right now

The jobs behind these projects

Each campus on this map needs two different workforces. During construction, the demand is for electrical and mechanical engineers, project and construction managers, commissioning agents, controls engineers and skilled trades. Once buildings come online, the need shifts to critical facilities engineers, data center technicians and operations managers who keep power and cooling running around the clock.

Most of these projects are going up in towns with small local talent pools, so employers recruit nationally and compete for the same people. See the 12 most in-demand data center roles, the power and cooling skills AI data centers need and the latest data center workforce shortage statistics.

Staffing a data center project? Apollo Technical recruits engineers and technical professionals for data center construction and operations. Talk to our data center recruiting team, or read our guide on how to hire data center engineers.

Data center map FAQ

How many large data centers are being built in the US?

This tracker counts more than 100 active US data center projects of 100 MW or more. Together they add up to over 95 GW of planned capacity, and more than half is already under construction. The live totals are at the top of the map.

Which state has the most data center projects?

Texas has the most large projects on the map, followed by Georgia, Virginia and Arizona. See the “Data center capacity by state” table above for the full ranking.

What does MW mean for a data center?

Data centers are measured by the electrical power they can draw, in megawatts (MW) or gigawatts (1 GW = 1,000 MW). A 1 GW campus uses about as much power as a mid-sized city. Developers sometimes quote total power and sometimes the IT load available to servers, so compare figures with care.

How many jobs does a data center create?

Large campuses typically announce thousands of construction jobs at peak and a few hundred permanent jobs once running. On this map, for example, Meta’s El Paso project lists 4,000 construction and 300 permanent jobs. Read more in our data center construction statistics.

How often is the map updated?

Monthly. Each update adds newly announced projects, changes status as projects break ground or come online, and marks projects that are paused or cancelled. The date of the last update is shown under the project table.
