One promise.
Twelve months.
SpaceXAI says all 69 temporary turbines at its Southaven facility will be removed as a permitted permanent power plant comes online. This tracker separates the schedule from independently verified progress.
Removal scheduled 69 units scheduled to leave.
The company says removal will start as early as August 2026 and finish by July 2027.

The record,
not the cycle.
We turn announcements, permits, reporting, and public testimony into a dated project history. Each update stays connected to the source that supports it.
How it works
Evidence before velocity.
The product is intentionally small. We do not publish a number because it looks plausible; we publish it when a reader can follow it back to a record.
Collect primary records
Company updates, permits, regulator pages, filings, and court records form the base layer.
Separate claims from facts
Company statements, outside reporting, and community concerns retain their source and speaker.
Publish the change
Material changes appear in a dated timeline with a last-verified stamp and correction path.
Built for verification
Three readers.
One record.
Public project information should stay public. The same record can serve a deadline-driven reporter, an infrastructure analyst, and a neighbor living with the project.
Get the current status fast.
Find the number, date, and primary link without reopening a month of tabs.
Keep the provenance intact.
Trace project claims through permits, reporting, and versioned updates.
See what was promised.
Compare public commitments with the project timeline in plain English.
Source standards
Not all links carry equal weight.
Our labels tell you whether you are reading a primary record, a company statement, established reporting, or a documented community concern.
Regulatory records
Permits, filings, official orders, and court documents.
Company statements
Useful for commitments and plans, always labeled as the company’s position.
Independent reporting
Reputable local, national, trade, and investigative coverage.
Questions, answered
Is this an official SpaceXAI tracker?
No. Compute Grid Watch is independent and is not affiliated with SpaceX, xAI, SpaceXAI, or any regulator. We link directly to their records where relevant.
Is the removal count real-time?
No. The site tracks verified disclosures and explicitly marks the current removed-unit count as unverified. We do not infer physical progress from the calendar.
Where do 69, 41, and 1.2 GW come from?
The 69-unit removal plan and 1.2 GW replacement come from the company’s July 30 update. The 41 permanent turbines also appear in state permit records cited by reporting. Every metric links to its source.
Does “unpermitted” mean illegal?
We do not make that legal conclusion. We attribute the term to reporting, litigation, or regulators and preserve the source’s wording and context.
How are corrections handled?
Material corrections are added to the project update log with the date, what changed, and the supporting source. See our methodology for the full rule.
