Major AI infrastructure projects and the power behind them. Figures are public estimates and labeled as such, not live telemetry.
xAI's Memphis facility is one of the most-discussed examples of a rapidly built, very large AI training cluster, notable for the speed of its build-out and for the local power and environmental questions it raised.
Stargate is an example of gigawatt-scale AI infrastructure planning, illustrating how the largest AI buildouts are now framed in gigawatts of power rather than megawatts.
The major cloud providers are each building dedicated AI campuses at large power scale, and are among the biggest corporate buyers of clean energy to supply them.
A wave of agreements ties AI data centers to nuclear generation, including reactor restarts and planned small modular reactors, to provide steady around-the-clock clean power.
Utilities are planning new generation and transmission, and in some cases delaying plant retirements, to meet AI-driven demand growth, with interconnection timelines a key constraint.
