CAPACITY TEST:
Meta's Ohio AI Data Center Tents Put Speed and Power at the Center of the Capacity Race
Meta has built six rapid deployment structures outside New Albany, Ohio, as it seeks faster AI data center capacity.
Local permits reviewed by Michael Thomas show five 125,000-square-foot structures started between April and June, while the site uses 200 megawatts of nearby modular gas turbines.
The practical test is whether faster construction helps Meta turn heavy AI capital spending into usable developer and product capacity.
