Another 36 are being built, and a further 85 are proposed.
9 of those are in the Ashburn district.
The grand total of operational, under construction, and proposed is 224.
The Impact of Data Centers
Utility Bills
It’s a proven fact that data centers drive up utility bills for the surrounding area due to how much electricity and water is required to run them.
Health
Data centers are proven to have a negative impact on the health of residents who live near them.
Water
Data centers are known to not only use massive amounts of water daily (up to 5 million gallons) for cooling, but also contaminate groundwater.
Property Values
If you don’t want to live near a data center, many potential buyers don’t want to either.
Noise
Data centers generate more noise than they claim they will, as has been shown with many recently developed data centers in Ashburn.
Environment
Data centers are a massive strain on our resources and are detrimental to our environment.
