Source-reported capacity; not metered consumption. Review underlying documents and notes. Planned capacity may include future phases and is not added to operational capacity here. The source may use facility, grid-feed or IT capacity definitions; consult the linked documents.
Coordinate precision is a source label, not an independent parcel survey. A marker does not confirm utility territory or establish an effect on residential bills.

Cologix acquired 154 acres in Johnstown for an 8-building AI-ready campus; first-phase development anticipated to begin 2025
Underlying source
Source notes
154 acres; up to 800 MW scalable across eight data centers / 2.0M sq ft (800 MW is a full-buildout potential). The '>$7 billion' figure is a company-wide expansion plan, not a Johnstown-specific committed amount. Coordinates are the Johnstown, Licking County area centroid. The '>$7B' figure is Cologix's company-wide expansion plan; the $1.17B commitment is combined across Johnstown + Orange Township (not split), so no investment figure is recorded. Land: ~$45M for 154 acres (Sept 2024).
AEP Ohio serves Licking County; AEP Ohio applied to the PUCO in May 2024 for a data-center tariff, and on July 9, 2025 the PUCO approved a settlement tariff that applies to new loads above 25 MW and sets minimum monthly demand charges of up to a maximum of 85% of contracted capacity, depending on the data center's load. First-phase load ~75 MW, scalable to 176 MW (Signal Ohio). No on-site generation disclosed.
