Cardinal Conversation: New details about a massive data center project

The company that plans to build a giant data center campus in Pittsylvania County has filed its permit application and revealed some details about what will be involved in the project.


The campus will include 21 buildings when it's finished in 15 years. It will require electrical generating capacity that exceeds the output of some power plants, and could potentially use up to seven-million gallons of water a day.
