Google has been named as the “sole end-user and operator” of the eight million sq ft (743,224 sqm) Columbia County Data Center, a data center development in the state of Georgia.
The company was named during an announcement made by the county’s Economic Development Authority on Thursday 23 July.

The development, which will be located northwest of the existing White Oak Business Park, will consist of 23 data center buildings spread across 1,900 acres of land, as per site plans posted on the data center project’s website.
“This is one of the most significant investments in our county’s history,” said Doug Duncan, chairman of the Columbia County Board of Commissioners. “Growth like this strengthens the commercial tax base that funds our schools, roads and public safety, and over time it reduces how heavily those services rely on residential property owners.”
