US operator Edged has launched a new data center in Phoenix, Arizona. The Endeavour-owned company this month announced the opening of its PHX01-1 facility. Situated on a 12-acre site at 8811 E. Warner Road in Mesa, Maricopa County, the two-story building delivers 36MW of capacity across 210,000 sq ft (19,510 sqm).
"This marks a major milestone in offering a high-performance environment to power the next generation of heavy compute while protecting local resources. The greater Phoenix region has become one of the most dynamic technology markets in the country," said Bryant Farland, president and CEO of Edged US. "Given Arizona’s water pressures, building a data center that requires zero water for cooling isn't just good business. It’s the right thing to do for the region’s long-term health.”
Reports of Edged’s plans for a Phoenix data center first emerged in early 2023. The company broke ground on the facility in August 2024 and topped it out in April 2025. The site supports densities of up to 400kW per rack using liquid cooling and 120kW per rack with air cooling. It also utilizes cooling technology developed by Edged’s sister company, ThermalWorks.
"Mesa has earned a 100-year assured water supply designation because we've made hard choices about how we grow,” said Mesa Mayor Freeman. “Edged US shares our commitment to sustainable growth and built a world-class AI facility that uses zero water. That's not just good for business; that's the kind of partner we want helping us elevate Mesa."
