The Largest Public Archive of Data-Center Buildout News · Updated Hourly
Moratoria — The National Record Index
We have logged 31,142 headlines and public records, drawn from a monitored network of 32,254+ sources — every data-center, power, water, and tax-abatement story we track, sorted into streams.
We are the first source to report
- Newly filed data-center projects — anywhere in America, in this index within the hour.
- Rezoning and power-contract votes before they happen — they surface here early, not after the campus goes up.
Filter it, search it, cite it. Links go to the original source; our original news lives here.
Need this news archive for your work?
We provide free custom extracts of everything we track: camera locations, brands, operators, dates, agencies, council agendas, and news coverage, for researchers, journalists, students, and advocates. Tell us the geography, time window, and format you need, and we’ll pull it for you. No charge, no strings.
