MONTREAL, June 19,
2024 /PRNewswire/ - 5C Data Centers ("5CDC"), a
provider of state-of-the-art data center services, has announced
plans to develop its next data center campus, CMH01, in the
Columbus, Ohio region, following
the acquisition of a live data center.
Located in one of the fastest growing data center markets in
North America, the acquired site
encompasses over 1,742,400 square feet of land with a live 66,000
square foot data center. With plans to expand to an additional
320,000 square feet of data center capacity in the next development
phase, the site will offer a significant opportunity for 5CDC to
deliver data center capacity for high-performance applications to
hyperscale, AI and cloud customers.
Thanks to close partnership with the local utility, the site
expansion is well under way. 200MW of power capacity is secured and
set for delivery to the site, with the first 100MW scheduled for Q1
2025. The first shell is fully leased and will deliver its
remaining capacity by Q3 2024. Additional power capacity is being
secured, allowing for significant scalability over time.
"We are excited about this new acquisition and development in
the Columbus, Ohio region," said
Steve Perez, Founder and President
of 5CDC. "Initial discussions with our hyperscale and large
cloud customers revealed significant interest, resulting in the
first phase of the project already being sold out. Once fully
developed, CMH01 will be the one of the largest data center
campuses in the region."
"The acquisition of the facility in the Columbus, Ohio region marks a significant
milestone for 5CDC. This is the first of many mega-campuses we plan
to announce and are excited about CMH01 given the strong
fundamentals and scalability of this particular area for our
customers," said Nick Etscheid,
Chief Corporate Development Officer of 5CDC.
Strong collaboration from local government bodies have played a
pivotal role in 5CDC's success in the region. 5CDC is committed to
fostering economic growth with an emphasis on sustainability and
expanding market presence.
"We are delighted to be working with local partners in
Ohio to expand 5CDC's presence
while driving economic development by adding many high-quality,
high-paying jobs. Equally important, 5CDC is strongly focused on
local sustainability initiatives to ensure our growth aligns with
positive impact in the communities where we operate." said
Benjamin Basson, Senior Vice
President of Business Development at 5CDC.
