Proposed-site record

Project Leo

High-priority AVAIO Digital Leo campus near 145th Street in Little Rock. Operator and state sources describe a phased, power-secured campus, but the public map should retain review flags until utility, water, incentive, and local approval documents are attached.

Compute Workload

This panel tracks what the facility is for without assuming that every project is AI training, inference, or cloud capacity.

Undisclosed / unknownUnknown

No source-backed workload, customer, hardware, or training/inference allocation is attached to this record yet.

Workload classification remains unknown in the reviewed record.

Public Money

Source lead: Arkansas EDC describes an initial $6 billion investment and says Arkansas passed legislation reducing regulatory timelines and offering new incentives for data-center investments; AVAIO says Arkansas sales/use tax incentives may apply to qualifying tenants. Project-specific incentive approvals and infrastructure-cost records still need review.

Water

Source lead: AVAIO says the site has pre-existing water and sewer connections with significant capacity and no required upgrades, plus water-efficient cooling and rainwater recapture. Public water/sewer service records, demand volumes, and permit files still need review.

Power

Source reviewed September 9, 2026: AVAIO's January 12, 2026 campus page describes 1,070 MW of total baseload power, split into 570 MW of grid power and 500 MW of behind-the-meter baseload, plus an executed Entergy Arkansas service agreement for initial grid capacity targeted to be energized in Q4 2027. Arkansas EDC describes an initial 150 MW contract and anticipated demand up to 1 GW. These are a campus power path and utility-service milestones, not confirmed data-center IT load or energized capacity; tariff, interconnection, generation, fuel, and ratepayer records remain separate review leads.
