Buildings 8-12 are operational. In June of 2026 only a faint outline of buildings 10,11 and 12 is visible, estimating construction completion to be the end of 2027, alligning with [expected completion by 2027](https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/aws-confirmed-as-company-behind-10bn-mississippi-data-center-development/). This final estimates adds three months to that for server installation.

Evidence note

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](https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/aws-confirmed-as-company-behind-10bn-mississippi-data-center-development/).

Planned capacity is an estimate from reviewed announcements, not metered utility load. Planned does not mean permitted, financed, built or energized.
