Green financing tools drive data center developer

STACK Infrastructure, Denver-based data center operator and developer, has secured $3 billion of green financing for four key U.S. projects, all part of active or under development campuses that collectively total 900MW. Following closely on its recent $3.3 billion and $1.3 billion global financing announcements, this latest funding further reinforces the firm’s dedication to environmental responsibility and innovation. The financing will spawn Arizona, Georgia and Virginia campuses, each designed to minimize environmental impact through water conservation, responsible resource utilization, and energy efficiency. In addition to low-carbon construction material specifications, key sustainability features of the campuses will include zero potable water usage for cooling and high-performance design features for optimal Power Usage Effectiveness.

“Our clients prioritize minimizing environmental impacts, which parallels our mission to advance a sustainable digital future,” says STACK Americas CEO Brian Cox. “Securing this financing is an added example of our efforts to combine sustainable development with responsible growth.” The company is a leading partner to cloud providers and related innovators committed to Environmental, Social, and Governance principles, he adds. By fostering a culture of responsible growth and design, it ensures that agility and innovation contribute to a more sustainable and energy-efficient future.

Financing and work on the Arizona, Georgia and Virginia projects proceeds alongside additional STACK developments, among them a 300MW south Dallas campus spanning 100 acres strategically engineered to accommodate both shell and turnkey deployments; 48MW Silicon Valley data center with immediately available space; 56MW Toronto campus spanning 19 acres, including an existing 8MW data center and 48MW expansion capacity; 200MW Oregon campus spanning 55 acres with 24MW of available capacity; 48MW build-to-suit opportunity in the Dallas/Fort Worth market; 58MW New Albany, Ohio data center campus; and, 250MW central Phoenix campus with a dedicated on-site substation.
