Sell Land for Data Center Development in Boone County, Indiana
Boone County is where Indiana’s LEAP district and Meta’s Lebanon campus are public. If you own land nearby, that is a reason to get a realistic read — not a reason to invent a price. Developers are paying premiums for powered land. The review is free, and there is no obligation unless a deal closes.
What is on the public record
On February 11, 2026, the Indiana Economic Development Corporation and Meta said the company had broken ground on a data center campus of more than $10 billion at the LEAP Innovation and Research District in Lebanon. The state release describes a 1,500-acre campus, 13 buildings including 10 data center buildings, about 300 operational jobs, and more than 4,000 construction jobs at peak. Meta’s own Lebanon post the same day calls it more than $10 billion and roughly 4 million square feet.
IEDC also said the LEAP district has secured more than $23 billion in investment since 2022. That figure is the district, not the Meta campus. LEAP was built for more than data centers, so a nearby manufacturing announcement is not a data center comparable.
A Meta fact sheet posted by the City of Lebanon (noted March 31, 2026) says the company expects the first buildings online in late 2027, is paying for the transmission lines and substations required to connect the campus, and describes more than $75 million for public water and wastewater projects and about $45 million for road work. Those are company statements hosted by the city, not an audited cost report.
Utility and corridor context
Lebanon sits on I-65 northwest of Indianapolis. Most of Indiana, including the AES Indiana and Duke Energy Indiana territories that cover the Indianapolis region, is in the MISO footprint. This page does not name a retail utility for a specific Boone County parcel, because the campus fact sheet describes dedicated transmission and substations rather than a spare megawatt number a neighbor can claim.
MISO publishes a generator interconnection queue — new power plants, not data center load. As of May 8, 2026, MISO’s board materials showed about 167 GW and 802 active projects. That number is explained on the queue study. It is not Boone County demand, and it is not available power on your farm.

Parcel basics are enough to start. Free, and no obligation unless a deal closes.
Your information is reviewed privately. A submission is not a listing, and it does not obligate you unless a deal closes.
What this does not tell you
- No per-acre sale price. None of the sources above is a closed land comparable.
- The $23 billion LEAP total is not Meta’s investment and is not a land value.
- “More than $10 billion” is Meta’s stated campus investment, including buildings and equipment, not the price of the acreage.
- A transmission line built for this campus is not spare capacity for the next parcel.
If you own the land
- Write down acreage, whether you want to sell or lease, and how close you are to a substation or a transmission line you can actually point to.
- Do not quote a megawatt figure unless it came from the utility in writing.
- Submit the parcel on the intake form. Step 1 is saved even if you stop before leaving your contact information.

Questions landowners ask
Is Boone County only the Meta site?
No. LEAP is a multi-sector district. The data center fact that is safe to cite is Meta’s Lebanon campus, as described by IEDC and Meta in February 2026.
Does a parcel next to LEAP have power?
Not automatically. Meta says it is paying for the lines and substations that serve its campus. Your parcel needs its own utility conversation.
Can I submit Boone County land?
Yes. Use the site intake. It is a qualification form, not a listing.
