Developer Withdraws Proposal for 250MW Data Center in Apex, North Carolina
March 06, 2026
North Carolina
A massive new development known as Project Delta is currently making waves in Stokes County, North Carolina. The proposal outlines an ambitious 1,800-acre data center campus near Walnut Cove, positioned strategically close to Duke Energy’s Belews Creek plant. While specific details remain under wraps, the site is expected to support "several hundred megawatts" of capacity and feature a sustainable closed-loop cooling system.
The project faces a steep climb to approval, however. Local officials are currently weighing a zoning amendment to accommodate the facility, despite the planning board’s recent recommendation against the plan. This follows a previous denial of a solar farm on the same land and mounting community opposition, with over 2,600 residents signing a petition to protect the area’s local heritage.
