How many data centers are in New York?

More Than Just Parks tracks 162 active data center facilities in New York, each citing a public source: 147 operating, 3 under construction and 12 proposed. 14 more were canceled, withdrawn, suspended or blocked.

How much electricity do New York's data centers use?

We don’t publish a state total, and the reason matters: about eight in ten facilities here never disclose a capacity, so any sum would look like a census of New York'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.
