United States · 1 project · Last reported
Summary
IREN plans a 1.6 GW grid-connected data center campus on a roughly 2,000-acre site just south of Kiowa in Pittsburg County, Oklahoma, between US 69 and Kiowa Lake Road. IREN announced the Oklahoma campus in February 2026, saying grid studies were complete and power would ramp from 2028; local reports say it had bought about 340 acres and would draw on Public Service Company of Oklahoma. A county tax incentive plan with an 85% property tax abatement was tabled in June 2026 for renegotiation, and in September 2026 the project still awaited county approval amid local opposition.

Timeline
| Date | Event | Actual or planned | Notes | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-02-05 | Announced | Actual | IREN announced a new 1.6 GW Oklahoma campus without naming the town; its 10-K later lists the site as Kiowa, Oklahoma. | IREN |

Power supply
| Type | Description | Sources |

| Grid | Grid connection via Public Service Company of Oklahoma, which local reports say will remain as backup if IREN later adds its own power system. | IREN Ltd via SEC EDGAR; IREN; News On 6 |
IREN's February 2026 announcement names only Oklahoma; the link to Kiowa comes from IREN's 10-K and from local reporting on the Pittsburg County project. Local reports mention options for Google, Microsoft and AI startups as possible customers, but no tenant has been confirmed. IREN estimates more than USD 600 million in taxes and community payments over 25 years. News On 6 lists 2028 as the operational year in one place and completion in 2029 in another.
