COWETA COUNTY

Project Sail

We’re proud to work with the Coweta County community on Project Sail, a thoughtful approach to growth that’s rooted in what matters most here. This project will generate new tax revenue to support local priorities—like schools, safer roads and emergency services—while honoring the values that make Coweta County special.

You may have heard the term “data center” but what does it mean for your community? Think of a data center as the digital engine room of modern life. It securely stores and manages the information that powers everything we do—from 911 emergency response systems to school communications, video calls with family and online banking.

Part of the Community’s Digital Foundation

Data centers quietly support nearly every part of daily life. Whether it’s healthcare, education, business, or staying in touch with family, the technology behind it all depends on reliable digital infrastructure, built and maintained right here in Georgia.

Jobs & Revenue that Stay Local

From initial construction to long-term operations, Project Sail will create real economic opportunities. That includes skilled jobs and consistent revenue that helps fund priorities we all care about like roads, emergency services, and public schools. We’re committed to ensuring these benefits stay right here in Coweta County.

Supporting Coweta County

As our digital lives expand, so does the need for secure, sustainable infrastructure. Project Sail responsibly supports this progress—advancing technology while respecting Coweta County’s community values. Together, we can embrace progress without compromising what makes this place home.

Project Sail: At a Glance

Size

9 buildings & 4.34 millions square feet

Power

Fully supported by Georgia Power (GP). GP included forecasted data center load in its 2025 Integrated Resource Plan, which was approved in July 2025. The plan adheres to the new Georgia Public Service Commission requirement that existing residential rates will not be affected by any new commercial demand, including data center loads

Water

The cooling system will use advanced water-cooling technology to provide high performance, energy efficiency, and quiet operation

Visibility

Setback, tree buffers, berms, and architectural screening.

Tax Benefit

Tax estimate ~$100M in annual revenue when the project is fully assessed at completed build out in 10 years.

The project is designed to blend in and be low-profile from the street. This image illustrates the view from Wagers Mill Road looking toward the planned data center project. Because of the site’s natural topography and surrounding vegetation, the buildings will sit well below the crest of the hill.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why was this site selected?

This location was chosen primarily because of its proximity to existing power infrastructure. That means energy can be delivered efficiently without the need for new transmission lines through other parts of Coweta County—minimizing disruption to the broader community.

In addition, the tax revenue generated by this project creates meaningful opportunities to invest in local priorities like schools, roads, and county services.

We recognize and respect Coweta County’s community character, which is why we’ve focused on a site near existing infrastructure, like transmission lines, that limits broader impact and delivers real, lasting value to the community.

How big will the data center campus be?

The total building footprint area has been reduced by nearly half, and total building floor area by 12% down to 4.34 million square feet.

We have also reduced the number of buildings, from 13 down to 9.

We continue to refine the site plan. As project details are set, we will continue to share information.

How will this project impact the nearby landscape?

Our goal is to keep this project out of sight as much as possible. The site naturally sits lower than most nearby roads, so existing hills and tree cover already help screen it from view.

To further reduce visibility, we’re exploring thoughtful building design and landscaping options that prioritize discretion and blend into the environment. These will include:

Required buffer to be maintained between the data center campus and property boundaries
Setting buildings back from public roads
Using native landscaping, fencing, or berms for additional screening
Avoiding signage or visible lighting from public roads
Applying building colors and materials that harmonize with the surrounding landscape

We’re committed to making this project fit respectfully into its setting—protecting views and preserving the character of the area.

Will the project create noise and increase truck traffic?

We understand these are real concerns, and we’re addressing them with care and experience.

On traffic: Once construction is complete, truck traffic will be minimal. During construction, we’re working closely with local officials to manage vehicle flow and make road improvements where needed. A full traffic study has been completed, and we’re coordinating with the Sheriff’s Office and the County Transportation Planning Department to ensure safe, efficient traffic management.

On noise: We’ll meet or exceed all local sound regulations and incorporate advanced soundproofing into the design. The natural topography of the site—combined with thoughtful planning—will help further limit sound reaching nearby areas.

We’ve been building and operating data centers for over 25 years and are committed to doing it the right way: with respect for the community, and in partnership with the people who live and work here.

Will dynamite be used to build the data center?

If blasting is needed, it would be limited.

Will there be a lot of light at night?

No, our data center is designed to be discreet and is designed with dark sky exterior lighting.

Will it affect our power or water?

These are important questions, and we’re committed to providing clear, honest answers.

Power: This project is part of Georgia Power’s approved statewide energy plan, which outlines how the utility will meet growing demand across the state. Georgia Power has confirmed they have the capacity to support this project without affecting existing homes or businesses in both the near or long-term.
Water: The current site plan estimates a potential peak water use of 6 million gallons of water per day. The water would come from the Chattahoochee River (not a reservoir) and the volume of water is already permitted and planned for by the water authority.
Ponds/Springs: We’ve engaged experienced local civil engineers to design comprehensive grading and stormwater management plans. These plans are built to meet or exceed all local and state standards and follow best practices for controlling runoff, erosion, and sediment.

What cooling system will we be using?

Our current design utilizes a closed loop air cooled system that does not use evaporative cooling. The climate in Coweta County is not feasible for full evaporative cooling due to the humidity and temperature in the summer.

How is potential flooding or erosion being mitigated?

Protecting the local environment is a top priority. We’ve engaged experienced local civil engineers to design comprehensive grading and stormwater management plans. These plans are built to meet or exceed all local and state standards and follow best practices for controlling runoff, erosion, and sediment.

Will this project ask for tax incentives?

If that becomes part of the conversation, any decisions will be made in close coordination with state and local officials—and with the broader goals of the community in mind.
