Proposed-site record

Atlas Industrial Data Center

High-priority South Whitehall Township proposal near Parkland High School. The prior location/operator display was too vague; current sources identify Edged and Project Atlas, with concrete waterless-cooling, power-infrastructure, tax, and school/community-impact claims that need primary-record review.

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

Source lead: dataset project_cost field reports $9 billion; Project Atlas materials say no local tax abatements or incentives are requested and claim the project would become the county's largest taxpayer. Tax-impact studies, agreements, and township/school-district records still need review.

Water

Source lead: Project Atlas materials and Lehigh Valley Public Media report a closed-loop / waterless cooling proposal with no daily municipal cooling-water use claimed. Water-service, stormwater, sewer, and binding township-condition records still need review.

Power

Source lead: dataset and Data Center Dynamics report a 725 MW campus; Project Atlas materials and local reporting say required power infrastructure would be paid by the project and served through new dedicated infrastructure. PPL, interconnection, tariff, and ratepayer-protection records still need review.

Bloom / Fuel Cells

No fuel-cell or Bloom Energy source is attached to this project yet.
