Amazon Ridgeland
Running (some may still be expanding)
Amazon Ridgeland is an AI data center in Ridgeland, Mississippi, developed or operated by Amazon for Anthropic. Satellite imagery shows its computers drawing about 228 MW today, against 840 MW planned.
U.S. average: 18.2¢ (+3.4%).
Statewide context, not this project’s effect: prices move for many reasons. Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration.
Satellite figures are Epoch AI estimates from imagery of buildings, cooling and power equipment; about 80% fall within a factor of 1.4 of the true value.

Buildings 6-14 are operational (estimate). Buildings 1-4 took an estimated 2.25 years on this site. We assume Buildings 6-14 get underway by July 2026, and take the same time as Buildings 1-4. This is later than the expected completion by 2027.
