How many data centers are in Louisiana?

How much electricity do Louisiana's data centers use?

We don’t publish a state total, and the reason matters: about seven in ten facilities here never disclose a capacity, so any sum would look like a census of Louisiana's data center load while leaving out the sites that stayed quiet. Each facility page shows the figure its own source states. A single large campus can draw as much power as a small city.

Are Louisiana data centers near protected land?

10 of the tracked facilities in Louisiana sit within 10 miles of protected public land, measured to the real boundary of the nearest national park, wilderness area, wildlife refuge or conservation area; none sit within a single mile.
