Amazon ups Mississippi AI data center commitment to $25 billion
Amazon continues expanding its planned investment in artificial intelligence infrastructure in Mississippi.
The online giant announced its total statewide planned investment in Mississippi data centers that will support its AI operations has reached $25 billion, with intent to create 2,000 jobs across all Amazon data center operations in the state.
In November 2025, Amazon said it would invest at least $3 billion in Warren County, Miss., to build a new data center to support AI and cloud computing technologies. This commitment followed Amazon's 2024 $10 billion investment to build two data center complexes in Madison County, Miss.

Now, Amazon's planned data center expansion in Mississippi includes an additional $11 billion investment in Madison County and a $1 billion investment in Hinds County, where the company is transforming the former Delphi manufacturing plant into a data center facility.
“Amazon’s $25 billion investment in Mississippi to build data centers will create 2,000 high-skilled jobs and bring new energy generation to the grid," said David Zapolsky, Amazon's chief global affairs and legal officer. "We’re covering all our energy expenses, increasing our investment in Madison County, expanding into Warren County, and transforming a former manufacturing plant in Hinds County—producing reliable infrastructure that will serve Mississippi for generations.”
In addition, Amazon says it has invested more than $5.8 billion in operations infrastructure and compensation to Mississippi employees across fulfillment, logistics, delivery, and retail operations, supporting more than 7,000 full- and part-time employees there.
The $25 billion planned investment will also directly enables Entergy Mississippi's Superpower Mississippi initiative—a commitment to modernize the state’s energy grid with $300 million in improvements at no cost to existing ratepayers.
Amazon has also invested in five renewable energy projects that are enabling 616 megawatts of new carbon-free energy in Mississippi through solar and wind farms across the state—enough to power 152,000 U.S. homes. These projects include Delta Wind, the state’s first utility-scale wind farm.
