Amazon’s regional project information states that the Hobart campus was undergoing site preparation as of September 2026. Site preparation does not establish main-building completion, opening, or a project-specific operating IT capacity. Amazon Web Services is developing a data center campus in Hobart, Indiana as part of its broader Northwest Indiana investment program. Amazon’s local materials confirm development activity, an expected 400 permanent jobs in Hobart and customer protections intended to prevent project costs from shifting to other NIPSCO customers. They do not verify the tracked 2.4 GW figure as project-specific operating or contracted capacity, so the headline is withheld. Building count, phase load, utility upgrades, water plan, permits and delivery dates remain open.
