- RegLayer reported that 47+ large US data center projects were delayed, withdrawn, or blocked in 2026, according to the firm's data
- Bernstein estimated that only approximately 35% of the planned US data center pipeline is credible, implying the majority of announced capacity may not materialize
Why it matters: With 47+ large projects already stalled or scrapped and Bernstein calling only about a third of the pipeline credible, a large share of announced US data center capacity likely will not be built — reshaping how analysts and grid planners should weigh the buildout.
