First Data Center Project Topped Out
Powerhouse tops out its first major data center project, marking a significant milestone in its development.
The joint venture's project is part of a $1 billion investment in the region.
PowerHouse Data Centers, a joint venture of American Real Estate Partners (AREP) and Harrison Street, has topped out ABX-1, its first data center project in Northern Virginia. The powered shell was built by DPR Construction. It measures 265,850 square feet and will initially provide 60 megawatts. The first occupants are expected in July, while final completion is scheduled for October.
The joint venture partnered with Dominion Energy to construct a dedicated, 300-megawatt power substation on the 10-acre site. This will enable the operator to scale up the total available power to 80 megawatts. Groundbreaking for the substation is expected soon, with delivery planned for 2026.
