Proposal Filed for 1,800-acre Data Center Campus Outside Greensboro, North Carolina

Jan 10, 2026 | Posted by Abdul-Rahman Oladimeji

 A large data center campus is being proposed outside Greensboro, North Carolina. The Stokes County board of commissioners is due to meet next week to discuss an amendment to the county’s zoning ordinance to include data centers as permitted in the heavy manufacturing conditional zoning classification. 

Full details are unclear, but the data center campus would total “several hundred megawatts” and be served by a new dedicated substation, according to the project website. The site, which will include a closed-loop cooling system, may include its own on-site generation capacity, though details haven’t been shared.


The land is owned by local developer David Couch, CEO of real estate firm Blue Ridge Companies. Couch is working with real estate developer Engineered Land Solutions for Project Delta.

There are 108 data centers in North Carolina.
