Source-reported capacity; not metered consumption. Review underlying documents and notes. Planned capacity may include future phases and is not added to operational capacity here. The source may use facility, grid-feed or IT capacity definitions; consult the linked documents.

Coordinate precision is a source label, not an independent parcel survey. A marker does not confirm utility territory or establish an effect on residential bills.

Reported lifecycle history

1. 2026-03Proposed

   Prado AI, an affiliate of PraCon Global Investment, asked the Mississippi Public Service Commission for an opinion on whether it would be regulated as a public utility if it generated and supplied power to tenants at a potential data center and semiconductor manufacturing campus; its initial filing said the campus would be in Ridgeland and that electricity would be included in the lease and not metered.

2. 2026-05-29Proposed

   The PSC declined to issue an opinion, calling the request 'premature' and 'hypothetical' and saying it lacked enough information; Commissioner De'Keither Stamps said Prado did not answer basic questions such as how many tenants the power would serve. Prado said the company will proceed anyway.

Source notes

Speculative; the record is marked rumored. A proposed AI/semiconductor industrial campus with its own private power plant, before the Mississippi PSC. The developer refused to state capacity MW, investment, acreage, site parcel or timeline, so none is recorded. Prado told Mississippi Today he declined to give the PSC more detail because 'making that information available to the utility companies would take away the project's competitive advantage,' and Prado AI 'is still working on securing all the funding it would need for a project of this size'; the only figure attached to it is Prado's stated long-term goal of 'over $25 billion', which is an aspiration, not an announced investment, and is therefore not recorded as an investment figure. Location: the March PSC filing named Ridgeland, but Prado has since said only 'the Jackson metro area' and declined to say where. The coordinates are a Ridgeland city geocode from the filing and the pin is approximate. The Mississippi Today article is cited via a Wayback snapshot. The project is docketed at the PSC and formally opposed by both of the state's major utilities, which is more than a press rumour. A separate facility, Traceview Advanced Power Station, is also in Ridgeland and is unrelated.
