Amazon Data Center Capex and Sites

Amazon's purchases of property and equipment were $82,999 million in 2024 and $131,819 million in 2025, with net cash capex of $77.7 billion and $128.3 billion respectively, primarily supporting AWS growth. Guidance escalated three times inside eighteen months, from $100 billion for 2025 to $200 billion and then $220 billion for 2026. Announced North American commitments include $11 billion plus an additional $15 billion in Indiana, at least $20 billion in Pennsylvania, more than $23 billion forecast in Ohio by 2030, and $10 billion for two Mississippi complexes plus a further $3 billion Vicksburg campus. AWS builds are overwhelmingly balance-sheet funded, with power procured contractually, including a 1,920 MW nuclear PPA with Talen Energy through 2042.

  • AWS's standing Virginia commitment is $35 billion in additional data center investment by 2040, announced January 2023; it predates the 2024-2026 window but remains the largest single-state AWS commitment.
  • Aggregate delayed or paused capacity in MW for Amazon is n.a.; no source quantifies AWS pull-back in MW. Confirmed blocked or delayed announced dollars: $3.6B (Tucson) plus $4B (Wilmington, tabled).
  • After rejecting Project Blue, Tucson adopted rules requiring council approval for any datacenter larger than 25,000 sq ft or requiring more than 20 megawatts of power, with water-disclosure triggers above 7 million gallons per month.
