The project was announced in January 2022 on a roughly 1,000-acre site east of Columbus, with Intel then saying production would start in 2025. In February 2025, Intel told the Ohio Department of Development that it expected to complete construction of the first fab in 2030 and begin operations in 2030-2031, with the second fab finished in 2031 and operating in 2032, ServeTheHome reported.
