Why this page exists

$12 billion multi-campus development across interconnected sites in northwest Louisiana (near Shreveport), positioned for cloud computing and AI workloads with STACK Infrastructure acting as development partner. Regional reporting highlights parish coordination, utility commitments, and phased construction mobilization.

Louisiana data-center economics require reading the site, power, water, tax, and utility record together. This page treats Louisiana Act 730 sales/use tax exemption diligence and local PILOT structures as separate claims, because incentive headlines are not the same as parish-level fiscal impact.
