Data center construction isn't going as planned. Bloomberg reported earlier this month that nearly half of the 12 gigawatts in computing power worth of data centers planned for this year have been delayed or canceled. Just a third of those projects are currently under construction, the market intelligence firm Sightline Climate estimates in a forthcoming report. Less than a third of the 21.5 GW worth of data center projects announced for 2027 are currently under construction.
