Atlas Development is exploring the possibilities of constructing 13 data centers about 40 miles outside Atlanta in Coweta County. The project, expected to cost $17 billion at full buildout, is far from a done deal. The company’s proposal must contend with power needs that exceed those of the county’s households. Through 2037, data centers will account for almost 83% of Georgia Power’s electricity demand from large potential new customers.

In addition, the company must manage the huge water and sewer requirements for a project of this size.

The project would rise on 800 acres near Newnan on a tract off U.S. 27 bounded by Wagers Mill and Welcome to Sargent roads. Each data center would be 378,000 square feet, with the whole project spanning almost 5 million square feet.

The Atlanta Business Chronicle reports Coweta County estimates the project would generate almost $1.6 billion in annual tax revenue.
