Kansas data centers, in short
Kansas has 20 data centers identified from primary sources, spread across 11 cities and counties and run by 11 operators. The largest concentration is Lenexa, with 5 data centers, followed by Olathe with 4 and Overland Park with 3.
The operators with the most data centers in Kansas are DataBank (2), Verizon Wireless (2), SC (1), Beale Infrastructure (1), LightEdge Cavern Suites (1). Colocation and interconnection providers appear most often because they publish building-level detail; hyperscale campuses appear where the operator or the county names the individual buildings.
Not every operator discloses size. In Kansas, 5 publish a floor area and 5 publish a power figure, and each figure is shown against the data center it belongs to rather than added into one number. They are not the same measurement: one operator states the floor area of a single building, another the full capacity of a campus it has only announced.
SPP runs the wholesale power market and the high-voltage grid for all of Kansas. 1 statewide measure governing data centers is on record, alongside 3 local pauses. 1 named project in Kansas is delayed, blocked or under challenge.
