TECfusions Clarksville Data Center Burlington Drive Mecklenburg County Virginia AI Campus

Status: Operational & Expanding Phase   |   Location: 250 Burlington Dr, Clarksville, VA 23927, United States

Project Overview

The TECfusions Clarksville AI Data Center Campus, located at 250 Burlington Drive in Clarksville, Virginia, represents a major high-density artificial intelligence computing development created through the adaptive reuse of an industrial site. Spanning approximately 73 acres in Mecklenburg County, the campus repurposes a former manufacturing facility into an AI-ready digital infrastructure hub designed to accommodate extreme-density GPU server racks, large language model training, high-performance computing, and other computationally intensive workloads. The development is planned to provide up to approximately 220 MW of utility and microgrid power capacity, with an additional 300 MW expansion planned across adjacent land parcels. Its electrical strategy takes advantage of existing 138 kV transmission infrastructure connected to Dominion Energy grid feeds, providing a foundation for large-scale computing operations. High-reliability power delivery incorporates static 2N and Block N+1 uninterruptible power supply configurations supported by standby emergency diesel generators, providing multiple layers of electrical resilience. Thermal management incorporates more than 20 large industrial chillers operating in closed-loop configurations alongside direct-to-chip liquid cooling systems designed to support high-density GPU deployments while minimizing water evaporation and reducing cooling-related resource consumption. Strategically positioned south of Richmond near the North Carolina state line, the campus provides an alternative location for large-scale AI infrastructure outside the heavily concentrated Northern Virginia market. Network infrastructure includes dual subterranean carrier-neutral dark-fiber entry vaults, diverse telecommunications pathways, and low-latency connectivity toward regional cloud and network hubs. Physical security incorporates controlled perimeter access, multi-factor biometric authentication, continuous surveillance, and zero-trust security principles. Through adaptive reuse, substantial power availability, advanced liquid cooling, resilient connectivity, and planned expansion capacity, the Clarksville campus is positioned to support the rapidly increasing infrastructure requirements of AI and accelerated computing workloads.
