This week PowerHouse Data Centers announced it has entered into a definitive 30-year lease agreement with CyrusOne Inc., a premier global data center operator, for its ABX-1 data center facility in Ashburn, Virginia. 

ABX-1 is the first of PowerHouse’s six data center projects representing 2.1 million square feet of data center space under construction in Northern Virginia. The two-story, 265,000 SF powered shell is located in the heart of Northern Virginia’s Data Center Alley on 10 acres at 21529 Beaumeade Circle. ABX-1 is uniquely positioned atop one of the world’s densest carrier and cloud availability zones where over 70 percent of global data traffic traverses.   

“Hyperscalers and operators now more than ever are looking for real estate solution providers to be turnkey and handle everything from land identification and purchase to data center design and construction,” says Doug Fleit, Co-founder and CEO of AREP and PowerHouse Data Centers. 

PowerHouse Data Centers also worked hand in hand with Dominion Energy to collaborate on the construction of a unique on-site substation. ABX-1 features an on-site 300 MW substation delivering more than 60 MW of power to the facility. The substation commenced construction this month and is expected to be energized by the end of 2025.
