New Albany North Campus Energy Center

EdgeConneX Powers the AI Revolution Sustainably

We are leading the way toward sustainable growth, specializing in building bespoke, hyperscale data centers for the world.

Project Summary

The proposed facility, PowerConneX New Albany 3 Energy Center project is a natural gas fired power generation facility located in Licking County, Ohio

The facility will be sited on approximately 30 acres and have a maximum total generating capacity of up to ~430 Megawatt. The purpose of the facility is to provide power using natural gas fired equipment that will serve as a primary source of electricity to data centers on the same site.​

Project Status

The Project hosted its second public information meeting on June 2, 2026, to provide the public with an opportunity to become informed about the Project and ask questions.

Project Benefits

1. Significant Support for Schools and Children: The project delivers sustained school revenue to fund new technology for education, ensuring that Johnstown-Monroe students aren’t left behind and have the tools, skills, and opportunities to succeed long-term​
2. State and Local Tax Revenue: Contributes new tax revenue to support schools and community investment​
3. No Negative Visual, Sound, or Environmental Impacts: The campus uses extensive landscaping, berms, setbacks, and architectural screening so the project has very low to no visual or sound impact on surrounding homes and road
4. Simplified Infrastructure: Developing a behind-the-meter power solution that does not burden the existing infrastructure

Anticipated Commercial Operation Date

It is anticipated that preparation of the site will begin in 2026. The project anticipates reaching commercial operations as early as Q4 2027.
