Map sources and method

The state outline is adapted from the U.S. Census Bureau 2025 cartographic boundary file. Facility coordinates are adapted from Compute Atlas by Edward Kubiak, edition 1.34.1, under CC BY 4.0. Outline and markers use one geographic projection before any explicitly disclosed readability offset. Exact singleton source anchors are never moved. A one-kilometre boundary tolerance prevents the simplified 1:20,000,000 outline from hiding legitimate border-area source points; farther conflicts are disclosed, not clamped. DataCenterData groups source-reported city coordinates only within a bounded map radius; the outline does not validate a facility record. Some locations in this layer are reported by the provider as derived from OpenStreetMap (© OpenStreetMap contributors, ODbL, https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright) and Epoch AI (CC BY 4.0).

Separate layer

Also listed by operators

Sites that operators list on their own websites and that are not rows in the licensed directory above. They are kept apart and never added to the licensed rows.

3 of these sites have no supported coordinate. The map does not invent a pin or a metro placement for them.

Hawaii evidence at a glance

A few checked sites

Selected public evidence, not a statewide census. Each row shows whether it is independently source-linked, attributed, or unresolved; licensed leads remain separate.

Capacity boundary stated: 0 of 1 published DataCenterData rows
Review timing: Audit through 14 September 2026 · next 13 March 2027

Known coverage gap

capitol.hawaii.gov could not be retrieved during review, so SB338's current status, text and final disposition are unverified.

Where the records were checked

Statewide audit pending

A few checked sites

This is not a list of every data center in the state, and the number here is not a count of them. There are almost certainly more.

Statewide coverage is not complete. The records below are sourced; a full statewide count has not been published.

State research audit window ended 14 September 2026. Individual records and claims below show their own evidence dates and may be newer.

Next scheduled coverage review: 13 March 2027.

0 independently source-linked project/campus records; 1 independently source-linked facility/building record; 0 attributed or unresolved rows. These counts use different units and must not be added together.

Source families checked, selected records and remaining gaps

These notes name selected records, say which kinds of public evidence were checked and show what remains missing. They do not add anything to the published counts.

- capitol.hawaii.gov could not be retrieved during review, so SB338's current status, text and final disposition are unverified.
- DBEDT and HTDC incentive award reports were not searched.

- Hawaii PUC Document Management System (docket search) · Hawaii Public Utilities Commission
Environmental and construction permits — Partly checked

- Clean Air Branch public notices were not yet reviewed directly, so generator permits were not checked.
- Hawaii, Maui and Kauai county building permit systems were not searched.

Operator disclosures — Partly checked

Review dates: the 3 Hawaii records were last checked 23 September 2026. 3 scheduled reviews are overdue as of the tracker date 3 November 2026: HCR 206 (2026): working group to study large data center impacts, HR 196 (2026): House request for a large data center study, SR 90 (2026): Senate request for a large data center study (last checked 23 September 2026, review due 23 October 2026). Overdue means not re-read yet, not changed. No single record, and not this list, establishes complete statewide policy coverage.
