$3B data center slated for Mesa

$3B Data Center Slated for Mesa

Novva Data Centers plans to build a 300MW data center campus on 160 acres of land outside of the 202 loop in southeast Mesa. Novva acquired the acreage via a state land auction in August 2023.

The campus is Novva’s sixth site and first entry into the state of Arizona. The data center provider will invest more than $3 billion to build the campus in two phases over the next decade. Novva predicts the project will take 10 million human hours to construct, and the first phase, with 96 Megawatts of Critical IT Load, will launch in late 2026. Once complete, the facility will feature five data halls, an office building and warehouse with a footprint of 1.3 million square feet and employ an estimated 200 people.

Mesa is Novva’s sixth announced location in the Western United States. Novva has campuses in West Jordan, Utah; Colorado Springs, Colorado; Reno, Nevada; Las Vegas; and San Francisco.
