Louisa Wins Second Big Data Center Project in a Month

LOUISA COUNTY, VIRGINIA, JUN 25 – EdgeCore's $17 billion investment will create decades of local tax revenue and jobs using advanced air-cooled technology that minimizes water use, the company said.

  • EdgeCore Digital Infrastructure acquired a 697-acre site known as Shannon Hill Regional Business Park in Louisa County for $42 million to build a data center campus valued at $17 billion.
  • In 2018, Louisa County purchased the land for $2.6 million and has since invested $29.5 million in site development and upgrading utility infrastructure along U.S. Route 250.
  • EdgeCore plans to construct up to 3.9 million square feet of facilities in Louisa County, implementing a closed-loop air cooling technology that conserves water and helps limit traffic on Shannon Hill Road.
  • Dustin Madison emphasized that the project fulfills the park’s intended advantages, bringing continuous revenue streams that will benefit local residents and create employment opportunities.
  • This investment contributes to Virginia's record $120 billion capital investment under Governor Youngkin and positions Louisa County as a growing hub for technology and data centers.
