AWS Clinton data center (former Delphi plant)
Operational
United States · 1 project · Last reported
Summary
Amazon is converting the former Delphi Packard plant in Clinton, Hinds County, into a data center. The governor announced the $1 billion project in April 2026 with about 100 jobs; Amazon says the plant closed in 2009 and then sat empty for years. At a June 2026 ribbon-cutting held to mark the investment, Amazon said this was its first full retrofit of an existing industrial building into a functioning data center, but it gave no in-service date or capacity. AWS says the site will use no water, and the mayor says day-to-day power will come from the grid.

AWS Clinton data center (former Delphi plant)
Operational last observed as of · Reported status
Location: Clinton, Hinds County, Mississippi, US. Coordinates are the Clinton city point from its Wikipedia article (Nominatim was unavailable). One local TV report places the site on Industrial Park Drive but calls it the former Milwaukee Tool factory, which conflicts with the Delphi identification, so no site point is used.

Site identity conflict: the governor's release and Amazon describe the building as the former Delphi plant, while an April 2026 local TV report calls it the former Milwaukee Tool factory on Industrial Park Drive. Status: Amazon's June 2026 post says the plant was fully retrofitted into a functioning data center, but the same post frames the ribbon-cutting as celebrating the investment and job creation and gives no in-service date or operating capacity, so the operational status rests on that one statement.

Evidence
Sources are linked, not redistributed; each keeps its own terms. An archived copy is a lookup for the Wayback Machine capture nearest the retrieval date and may be unavailable or differ from what was reviewed. Each hash states what it covers; imported factual records are not publisher-page captures.
