Proposed-site record

Digital Realty Charlotte Data Center

Digital Moores Chapel LLC's 156.23-acre Charlotte rezoning was approved May 19, 2025 for a site-plan amendment allowing data-center and office uses. The reported up-to-400 MW figure is planned IT-capacity context from company reporting, not energized or operating capacity; project water and utility-service quantities remain unresolved.

Compute Workload

This panel tracks what the facility is for without assuming that every project is AI training, inference, or cloud capacity.

Undisclosed / unknownUnknown

No source-backed workload, customer, hardware, or training/inference allocation is attached to this record yet.

Workload classification remains unknown in the reviewed record.

Public Money

No public funding record attached yet. Local subsidy, tax-abatement, land, bond, and utility records need follow-up.

Water

Charlotte's approved 2024-144 rezoning record identifies Charlotte Water and storm-water review for the 156.23-acre site, but the reviewed public materials do not disclose a facility water allocation, cooling method, withdrawal permit, wastewater capacity, or operating-use quantity.

Power

Charlotte Observer reporting says Digital Realty previously described the site as capable of up to 400 MW of IT capacity. Charlotte's May 19, 2025 rezoning approval confirms land-use entitlement for the Digital Moores Chapel site, but does not establish utility delivery, energized service, or operating IT load; retain 400 MW as reported planned IT-capacity context.
