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
Natelli Holdings presented a proposal to purchase 133 acres of county-owned land (the former Dominion laydown site) at the Board of County Commissioners meeting; Calvert County held a public information meeting on April 6, 2026.
Underlying source
Source notes
Four data center buildings of roughly 200,000-220,000 sq ft each, about 70 feet tall, on 133 acres of county-owned I-2 heavy industrial land — the former Dominion Cove Point laydown site — paired with a pledged $30 million regional park on a separate Dominion-donated parcel. Capacity, water and jobs figures are developer-supplied. As of the county's data center page, no site plan application has been filed, and Calvert County's six-month moratorium on data center site plan approvals takes effect Aug. 28, 2026. As of 2026-09-10, status remains proposed. Developer's own project page confirms 300 MW capacity and states timelines remain 'subject to change...dependent upon final design development, regulatory approvals, and other factors' -- i.e. no firmer status yet. As of September 2026, thebaynet.com's coverage of the $30M park and the investment cost could not be retrieved (the site was rate-limiting requests), so no investment figure or community status is recorded.
Connection to the SMECO transmission grid via a new on-site substation, cost borne by the developer.
