Proposed-site record

Hobart Data Center

Amazon's Hobart campus has approved local rezoning and a documented NIPSCO/MISO power pathway. The 2,400 MW contract ramp and separate 1,500 MW transmission project remain planned utility-service context, not energized or IT-load capacity; facility water, wastewater, and public-money amounts remain unresolved.

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.

Water

Source reviewed September 9, 2026: Hobart's rezoning materials say water is available and the regional lift station could be upgraded for sanitary sewer, but the city materials and utility records reviewed do not disclose a facility withdrawal, consumption, cooling method, or wastewater-service quantity. Preserve those fields as unresolved.

Power

Source reviewed September 9, 2026: the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission approved an Amazon/NIPSCO service arrangement ramping to 2,400 MW by the end of 2032, and MISO lists a separate approved 1,500 MW New Hobart Load Addition. These are utility-service and transmission-planning figures, not energized capacity or data-center IT load; Hobart's rezoning and permit materials remain separate approvals.
