A recurring index of American Commerce Review reporting on hyperscale data centres, AI infrastructure, power demand and state-level digital-infrastructure investment.
Rows or archive records currently included under this product's stated inclusion rules.
Distinct source domains visible in the current research table. Archive indexes can also contain source labels retained inside the underlying articles.
The review cadence is part of the dataset methodology. Material events can trigger an earlier update.
Last reviewed 2026-09-08. Historical observations are preserved rather than silently rewritten where context matters.

This index is designed to connect data-centre construction with the industrial and power-system effects that determine whether announced capacity can actually be delivered.
State-level location economics, electricity availability and transmission constraints are retained as part of the research context rather than stripped from project announcements.
Large-scale cloud or platform infrastructure where the source or operator identifies hyperscale characteristics.
Physical compute, data-centre, power or networking infrastructure built materially for AI workloads.
Operator, utility or government-disclosed power requirement. Unverified estimates are excluded.
8 Sep 2026: added formal project-stage, power-demand and location-economics definitions to the archive index.
These dated observations preserve additional evidence about how investment commitments, project stages, regulatory milestones and ecosystem measures changed over time. They are not treated as additional current totals. Where a later disclosure supersedes an earlier figure, both observations remain visible with their dates and source context.
| 2025-08 | Oracle Shackelford | Oracle contracted a Texas data-centre development with 115MW of power available and delivery targeted for first half 2027 | Texas | Open source | Power figure is a project-level disclosed input, not an assumption about eventual AI utilisation. |
| 2025-09 | Microsoft Wisconsin AI infrastructure | Microsoft described more than $7bn of Wisconsin investment commitments across its initial and additional programmes | Wisconsin | Open source | Programme commitment retained separately from individual facility completion milestones. |
| 2025-10 | Oracle Zettascale10 / Abilene | Oracle positioned Abilene as the flagship site for its multi-gigawatt OCI Zettascale10 AI-cluster architecture | Texas | Open source | Architecture-level multi-gigawatt capability is kept separate from commissioned site capacity. |
| 2025-10 | Meta Hyperion financing | Meta and Blue Owl announced a joint venture to develop the Hyperion data-centre project | Louisiana | Open source | Financing structure is retained because it affects who bears capital and development exposure. |
| 2026 | Oracle Abilene | Oracle reported 42% of total site capacity delivered on its current Abilene project page | Texas | Open source | A delivered-capacity percentage is a stage observation rather than a final MW figure. |
| 2026-06-23 | Microsoft Mount Pleasant | First datacentre facility completed and operational; Microsoft estimated $4.7bn of local hyperscale construction spending across 2024-2028 | Wisconsin | Open source | Operational milestone for the first facility; a second facility remained under construction for 2028 completion. |

ACR reporting where US data-centre construction, investment, capacity, power demand or location economics are central.
The article must identify a US project, market, company or state-level investment theme and retain a dated source trail.
Generic AI software coverage, overseas data centres and articles without a material physical-infrastructure component are excluded.
The index is rebuilt from the publication archive as new qualifying reporting is added. Historical article dates and source attribution remain unchanged; new observations are appended rather than backfilled with inferred facts.
