US States With the Largest Tracked Pipeline
Pipeline growth is measured in megawatts of new capacity, not just existing footprint. This ranking sums every announced and under-construction project in our dataset per state. Announced projects can be delayed, downsized, or cancelled, so treat this as a directional view of where investment is being publicly committed.

Methodology
Pipeline = sum of MW for tracked projects with status 'construction' or 'planned'. Existing facilities are excluded. 'Fastest-growing' here means largest announced pipeline, not a percentage growth rate.
Pipeline totals are based on announced and tracked projects, not verified construction spend or energized capacity. A state with a large pipeline today may see permits delayed, power agreements renegotiated, or projects shelved. This ranking shows where publicly disclosed development is concentrated, not guaranteed future capacity.
