Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of October 2, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over University of Hawaiʻi Information Technology Center Data Center in Honolulu, Honolulu County, Hawaii appears in the sources this registry tracks. That is an absence in our sources rather than a finding that none exists, and local opposition often predates any coverage a national dataset would pick up.

If you live near this site and something is happening that this page does not show, that is worth telling us. Send us the document and it goes in the record with the source attached. For sites where opposition is already established, see every contested site we track.

Notes on the record

An 8,000 sq ft data center with Tier II redundancy, backup batteries and generator, inside the six-story, 74,000 sq ft, LEED Gold IT Center on the UH Mānoa campus. The building is hardened against Category III hurricane winds. UH offers colocation there at $3,700 per cabinet per year. Under a 2016 agreement, it also houses part of the State of Hawaiʻi's executive-branch IT systems moved from the aging Kalanimoku Building data center, with ETS reimbursing UH's costs. It hosts UH's Mana HPC cluster, which as of 2022 had 8,964 cores and 120 GPUs that the source calls critical for machine-learning and AI research; about $4.5M had been invested in the cluster since 2014. That cluster figure is not a facility investment, so the investment figure is omitted. the AI use classification is mixed_use: AI/ML work on the GPU cluster is one named use alongside enterprise university and state systems. No MW figure was published. Coordinates are the Census geocode of 2520 Correa Rd.

What the record does not establish, and the document that would

In every fight on our tracker the decisive fact came out of a public records request. These are the requests for this site.

Power capacity in megawatts
Cooling method and water use
Tax abatements or other public subsidy
Permanent jobs promised
Land area
How the community has received it
Which utility serves it

Which document closes each gap

Power capacity in megawatts: The utility's large load service agreement, the interconnection request in the grid operator's queue, or the electrical site plan in the permit file.
Cooling method and water use: The water service agreement, any groundwater appropriation permit, and the mechanical narrative in the site plan.
Tax abatements or other public subsidy: The abatement, PILOT, or development agreement approved by the county, city, or development authority, and the state's data center sales tax exemption certificate if one was issued.
Permanent jobs promised: The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.
Land area: The rezoning application, the plat, or the deed recorded with the county.
How the community has received it: Planning commission and governing body minutes, public comment records, and any petition or lawsuit filed in the county.
Which utility serves it: The electric service agreement or the utility's filing with the state public utility commission.
