AWS Clinton: $750M AI Data Center Mississippi
Status: Under Construction (Rehabilitation Phase) | Location: Industrial Park Dr, Clinton, MS
Project Overview
AWS Clinton, internally known during the incentive phase as a critical component of Amazon's multi-billion dollar Mississippi expansion, officially moved into the construction spotlight on March 5, 2026. The project involves the total rehabilitation of the massive 690,000-square-foot former Milwaukee Tool facility. This "Brownfield" approach allows AWS to bypass the lengthy timelines associated with new structural builds, focusing instead on intensive mechanical and electrical retrofitting to support AI-dense workloads.
The project is the largest economic development in Clinton’s 223-year history. A defining characteristic of the site is its "Zero-Potable Water" cooling mandate. To address local environmental concerns, AWS is implementing a closed-loop air-cooled system that requires zero water for the cooling of servers, using potable water only for standard office administration. Furthermore, the project is part of a 30-year "Fee-in-Lieu" tax agreement expected to inject millions annually into the Clinton Public School District while funding a $300 million grid transformation by Entergy Mississippi to ensure residential rate stability.
