xAI Southaven Power Plant (MZX Tech)
xAI (filed as MZX Tech LLC). Under construction.
xAI affiliate MZX Tech bought a former Duke Energy plant site in Southaven, across the state line from the Memphis data centers, and rapidly added gas turbines to power them. Mississippi approved a permit for 41 permanent turbines in March 2026, and the company is now removing 69 temporary turbines under an agreement with state regulators, with 11 shut down by August 31, 2026 and full removal expected by July 2027. A federal preliminary injunction hearing on the NAACP's lawsuit over the unpermitted temporary turbines, originally set for August 24, 2026, was postponed according to a court notice filed August 21, 2026, and no new hearing date has been reported.
