About DataCenterFeed

Every data center project, from zoning vote to power-on. DataCenterFeed is a free national tracker of the data center and AI infrastructure buildout, with sourced news on the projects, the approvals, and the power behind them.

Founded and published by John Folger. DataCenterFeed is an independent publication and is not affiliated with any government body, utility, grid operator, or company it covers.

Who it's for

Industry professionals, investors and analysts, utility and grid planners, local officials, and residents of the communities where campuses are proposed. If you need to know what was proposed, what was voted on, where the power is coming from, and what happens next, this site is for you.

What we cover

New data center projects and campus announcements; rezoning, permit, and tax-agreement votes and the public meetings around them; utility supply deals, grid interconnection, and actions by FERC, grid operators, and state utility commissions; hyperscaler capital spending, GPU cluster buildouts, and transactions; state and federal policy aimed at large loads; and cooling, water, and the engineering of AI-scale facilities. Stories publish when news happens, not on a calendar.

Editorial approach

We report on-the-record facts: votes, filings, permits, statements made at public meetings, and company announcements. We work from primary records — county and city agendas and minutes, state utility commission dockets, FERC and grid-operator filings, SEC filings, and company newsrooms — plus reputable trade and local outlets. Every figure about a project's size, power demand, cost, or water use is attributed to the source that stated it. We do not characterize anyone's motives, we do not name private residents, and nothing we publish is investment advice. Articles are AI-drafted under disclosed desk bylines, checked against their cited sources, and reviewed before release. Read the full editorial standards.

Accuracy & corrections

Project plans change: sizes are revised, votes are postponed, applications are withdrawn. We report the status shown in the latest record, say when it changes, and correct mistakes promptly. Spot something wrong? Email [email protected].
