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
- Under construction
Georgia EPD issued an air-quality permit for the data center campus and 37 diesel emergency generators on 2026-06-29; EPD issued a Notice of Violation on 2026-07-02 because construction had already begun before permits were in hand.
Underlying source
Source notes
Serverfarm data center campus on Hazelbrand Road in Covington, Newton County, powered by an adjacent VoltaGrid on-site natural-gas plant. Georgia EPD issued an air-quality permit for the data center and 37 diesel emergency generators on 2026-06-29, but issued Notices of Violation on 2026-07-02 because construction began before the required permits were obtained. Coordinates are an approximate Covington geocode, not a parcel-confirmed footprint.
Baseload supplied by an adjacent VoltaGrid on-site natural-gas generation plant rather than the Georgia Power grid; 37 diesel-fired emergency backup generators covered under the site air-quality permit.
