Is a Data Center Coming

Crittenden County, AR

Google West Memphis Data Center Campus

Google. Under construction, 600 MW

Google is building its first Arkansas data center on a 1,100 acre site in West Memphis as part of a 4 billion dollar investment through 2027, with construction underway since October 2025, backed by an August 2026 grid partnership in which Entergy Arkansas and Google agreed to about 600 million dollars in grid upgrades in exchange for at least 500 million dollars in savings for other customers. On October 20, 2026 Entergy filed a heavily redacted amended application with the Arkansas Public Service Commission describing a Google request to raise its maximum power demand beyond the previously disclosed 600 megawatts and speed up its ramp up schedule. On October 30, 2026 Entergy filed a follow up application for two new battery storage facilities, a 250 megawatt Driver BESS near Osceola in Mississippi County and a 100 megawatt Jones Mill BESS in Hot Spring County, together costing about 550.6 million dollars with a projected June 2028 in service date, citing Google's interest in expanding and accelerating its West Memphis operations.
