How To Read This Taxonomy
This taxonomy is one lens on a live dataset covering 344 AI data centers across 64 countries and 202 tracked operators.
Why does project status matter in this dataset?
Status separates speculative announcements from facilities already consuming grid power or moving through construction, which is essential when estimating near-term AI capacity growth.
What is the fastest way to read the pipeline?
Compare planned, under-construction, announced, and operational slices side by side to see whether a market is still early-stage or already delivering real compute infrastructure.
