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.
Reported lifecycle history
- Proposed
Land rezoned and annexed into New Albany in July 2025, then acquired by Karis. Plan for eight data center buildings (~1.6M sq ft). Karis asked Ohio EPA in early 2026 to fill ~2 acres of wetlands.
Underlying source
Source notes
Karis is a land/infrastructure developer that does not operate facilities, so the eventual operator is unknown. Third-party listings suggest an end user, but that is unconfirmed.
