Provider notes
Energy. Utility inferred from geographic service area and Dominion's Tributary 230 kV transmission project (SCC Final Order June 30, 2024) built specifically to serve Spotsylvania County data center demand. PH95-specific press materials do not name the utility. Rappahannock Electric Cooperative also serves parts of Spotsylvania County and cannot be ruled out.
Water. Press materials do not disclose cooling approach for PH 95 specifically. PowerHouse has deployed direct-to-chip and closed-loop cooling at other campuses; no water draw figures available.
Community. Spotsylvania County has experienced significant data center controversy: the board voted 4-3 in December 2025 to approve design standards; required special use permits for data centers in February 2026 (mirroring Loudoun, Prince William, and Henrico); public comments cited noise, grid strain, water supply risk, and visual impact. One project (Hunters Ridge South, 2.2M sq ft) passed 5-2 in August 2025. PowerHouse 95 itself was not identified as the specific target of organized opposition in sourced materials — it appears to have proceeded under earlier by-right industrial zoning rules. …
What the source record says
Campus located at approximately 4189 Turner Ct, Spotsylvania County, VA along the I-95/Hwy 17 corridor; coordinates are approximate. Three 300 MW substations planned (800 MW total); first substation delivering 150 MW targeted for Q4 2025. Up to 8 buildings, 3.5 million sq ft. Phased delivery Q3 2025–Q4 2027. Joint venture between PowerHouse/AREP and Harrison Street. Harrison Street managing director explicitly cited 'high-powered computing, AI, and other advancements' as the demand driver for this campus class, supporting likely AI classification. Named tenant not disclosed. Dominion Energy utility attribution is inferred from service territory: Dominion's Tributary 230 kV project was approved by Virginia SCC (June 30, 2024) specifically to serve growing Spotsylvania data center demand; PH95 press materials do not name the utility directly. Investment amount, job figures, and water draw not disclosed in any sourced press materials. Joint venture: American Real Estate Partners (AREP) and Harrison Street.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
