White Oak Technology Park Data Center Development

planned

The White Oak Technology Park in Appling, Columbia County, is a proposed development of up to 24-29 data centers across a 1,900-acre site. The initial phase plans for one or two data center facilities to be completed over the next two years, with the remaining facilities developed over the next 10-15 years. The project aims to attract revenue-generating businesses with minimal disruption to residents, balancing economic opportunity with environmental responsibility. Key concerns include water usage, energy demands, and environmental impact, with infrastructure costs for water and power to be borne by the developer or end-users.
