[Blue Data Center Server Racks Corridor With Lights] Nikada The U.S. data center boom could face a fresh political hurdle as newly elected governors promised to halt or pause construction across several states, putting a substantial portion of planned development under scrutiny. Newly elected governors’ pledges to pause data center construction could affect about 40% of pending U.S. capacity, according to Annmarie Hordern in a post on X citing Cleanview data. Cleanview’s map separately estimated that 41% of planned data centers could face a state pause. Texas had the largest planned data center capacity among the five states labeled on the map, at 88.4 GW, followed by Ohio at 21.9 GW, Georgia at 20.2 GW, New Mexico at 11 GW, and New York at 9.9 GW.
