How many data centers are in Ohio?

This page counts the major projects the Census has researched and sourced: 5 as of Sep 22, 2026. It does not yet include every smaller colocation or enterprise facility, so the total number of buildings in Ohio is higher. We add projects as they are announced or found in public filings.
