Project Racehorse represents a significant opportunity to develop a large-scale AI and hyperscale data center campus on approximately 1,000 acres of industrial land in West Virginia, with potential expansion to approximately 2,000 acres.
The project is strategically positioned within the broader Pittsburgh technology and industrial corridor, approximately 35 miles from Pittsburgh, offering access to established regional infrastructure and major Midwest markets.
The proposed development strategy centers on a dedicated behind-the-meter (BTM) power generation model, targeting an initial capacity of 500 MW within 36 months, with long-term development potential exceeding 2 GW.
The site benefits from access to major energy infrastructure, multiple natural gas supply corridors, potential industrial cooling-water resources, and regional fiber connectivity, creating a compelling foundation for a large-scale digital infrastructure development.
Key Investment Highlights
Approximately 1,000 acres, with potential expansion to approximately 2,000 acres.
Initial 500 MW behind-the-meter generation target within 36 months, with long-term potential exceeding 2 GW.
Access to multiple interstate natural gas pipeline systems and nearby high-voltage transmission infrastructure.
Potential for dedicated on-site generation, utility grid supply, or alternative power procurement arrangements.
Access to the Ohio River, providing an opportunity to develop large-scale industrial cooling-water infrastructure.
Proximity to multiple regional and national telecommunications networks.
Approximately 35 miles from Pittsburgh, with access to the wider Midwest technology and data center markets.
Existing heavy-industrial land-use context potentially suitable for large-scale infrastructure development, subject to confirmation of applicable approvals.
Power & Energy Infrastructure
The proposed energy strategy is based on a phased behind-the-meter generation facility designed to support the anticipated electricity requirements of a hyperscale data center campus.
| Parameter | Development Target |
|---|---|
| Initial Power Generation | 500 MW |
| Target Initial Delivery | Within 36 months |
| Long-Term Development Potential | 2 GW+ |
| Generation Model | Build-Own-Operate |
| Potential Fuel Source | Natural Gas |
The site benefits from proximity to established high-voltage transmission infrastructure and multiple natural gas pipeline systems, offering potential flexibility in structuring its long-term energy supply.
The project is considering several potential power procurement strategies, including dedicated on-site generation, utility grid arrangements, and virtual power purchase agreements.
All capacity figures represent development targets and are not currently committed or guaranteed.
Utilities & Supporting Infrastructure
Natural Gas
The location benefits from access to multiple interstate natural gas pipeline corridors, potentially supporting the development of a dedicated gas-fired generation facility.
Water & Cooling
The property's regional setting along the Ohio River offers potential access to substantial industrial cooling-water resources. A dedicated water intake and associated infrastructure would be developed subject to engineering, environmental review, and permitting.
Fiber & Telecommunications
Multiple fiber infrastructure providers operate in the surrounding region, offering potential opportunities for diverse network connections and redundant connectivity.
Grid Infrastructure
Existing high-voltage transmission infrastructure and nearby substations may provide additional grid supply or reserve options, subject to utility studies, interconnection approvals, and capacity availability.
Strategic Location & Connectivity
The project is situated in Hancock County, West Virginia, within the broader Pittsburgh regional market.
The reported network assessment indicates potential sub-millisecond connectivity to Pittsburgh and approximately 4.84 ms latency to a Columbus network destination, subject to independent technical verification.
This regional positioning may be attractive for AI training, inference, cloud computing, hyperscale operations, and other high-performance computing applications.
Development Potential
The proposed campus is envisioned as a phased development, allowing infrastructure and power generation capacity to expand in line with tenant demand and investment commitments.
| Development Phase | Target Capacity |
|---|---|
| Initial Development | 500 MW |
| Long-Term Expansion | 2 GW+ |
