Ownership
No operating power is on record, so no tier has a share of it.
Facilities by ownership tier
Open a facility for its ownership relationships and sources.
Ownership tiers over time
Operating-capacity-weighted shares at each recorded snapshot. Dates are when the distribution was captured; the ownership evidence can be older.
43 snapshots weighted by operating capacity, from 2026-09-23 to 2026-11-04. 144 earlier snapshots weighted every recorded power figure and are listed under Snapshot values.
All 43 record 0 MW operating, so no tier has a share to plot.
Snapshot values
Displayed MW are rounded to two decimal places. Operating capacity counts operational records only; a snapshot taken before operating weighting began lists only the figure it recorded, every status summed. Download values (JSON) for the full inputs used to calculate the shares. Consecutive snapshots showing the same figures are listed once, under their first and last dates; the download keeps every date.

How the figures were made
Geography. Outlines use Natural Earth de facto boundaries. Distant parts may be omitted; located records outside the drawing are counted in its caption. Power circles use the same scale across countries.
Counts. Counts retrieved 4 Nov 2026. Operating capacity and ownership shares include estimated capacity; a campus figure recorded as its full build-out, earlier phases and second records are shown apart rather than counted. Sovereign programme ratios use government-only announced amounts where available; each ratio lists its numerator and denominator.
Corporate traceability. No company linked means no operator, site owner or hardware owner has been linked to the facility. The tiers do not verify property ownership or facility operation. Announced and under-construction figures are not counted here. Tiers classify the available sources for a company linked to each facility. A linked company’s SEC identifier can qualify it for the first tier without establishing a parent. Ownership relationships and their sources are listed on the facility and company pages.
Export-control posture. Recipient and end-use conditions can change the outcome of a transaction. Classification review: 17 Jul 2026. Access basis: no ratio; the sources do not establish this quantity. The sources recorded here do not quantify Iran’s access to AI compute. Reported intermediary routes do not establish a comparable ratio.
