EdgeCore Adding to Mesa Data Center Campus

EdgeCore purchased nearly 44 acres for a million dollars an acre to add to its data center campus in Mesa. The company plans to add three buildings and a Salt River Project substation to handle 250 additional megawatts of power.

The Phoenix Business Journal reports when the company is done building, EdgeCore’s data center campus will include up to six buildings—including the initial $150 million, 180,000-square-foot data center and the two other buildings under construction. Once fully completed, the Mesa data center campus will have over 450 megawatt capacity and 3.1 million square feet.

The data center developer secured $1.9 billion in financing from a group of banks led by TD Securities.

CBRE reported Phoenix’s data center total inventory increased to 602.8 megawatts (MW) (a 67% increase year over year), ranking fourth largest among the North American primary data center markets.
