Meta Prometheus
A hyperscale AI campus by Meta in New Albany, OH, on the PJM grid. Status: operating, expanding.
Grid and gas impact
At full buildout this campus is announced at 1,000 MW. After phasing to 2030 and weighting by build stage, the index expects about 900 MW running by 2030. That is about 0.6% of the PJM 2025 summer peak (160,000 MW).
At that level it would use about 5,913 GWh of electricity a year, roughly what 548,000 US homes use (EIA average of about 10,800 kWh per home), and add about 82.9 MMcf/d of natural gas burn on an average day, counting both on-site generation and the region's gas-fired power plants.
Its grid and gas scores tie: it draws on both the transmission grid and dedicated or on-site gas supply. Rated 3 of 4 bolts. Solid bolts mean the campus is operating or under construction.
Latest update. Oct 19, 2026: Meta says the first phase is complete and live, running hundreds of thousands of GPUs.
Research note. Williams 'Socrates' behind-the-meter gas; 200 MW listed for Socrates South.
