Multi-gigawatt AI training campus in Richland Parish, Louisiana — the largest single-site build publicly announced.
What is established
Under construction. 5 GW announced (basis not stated by the source); $50B announced investment; expected Dec 2030; owned or developed by Meta; power source: Grid + on-site generation.
What is not disclosed
Accelerator count, hardware platform, named tenant, cooling technology — not disclosed by any source on this page. Recorded as unknown, never as zero.
Analyst note
5 GW is a full-build target across many phases, not near-term capacity. Treated as an estimate; no phase is confirmed energised in the sources reviewed. UPDATE 2026-08-01: Meta's July 13, 2026 announcement formally expanded Hyperion to 5 GW and more than $50B (from 2 GW/~$27B). Committed phase: 2 GW by 2030; full build reported ~2032. Nothing is operating yet — Epoch projects 1,676 MW IT by Q1 2028.
Physical work is under way and the evidence includes a primary source.
Power readiness
Capacity basis unclear
A megawatt figure exists but the source does not say whether it is IT load, site power or generation.
