BURKE COUNTY DATA CENTER ADVANTAGES
A Strategic Alternative to Metro Atlanta

As Atlanta continues experiencing:
• Power constraints
• Transmission congestion
• Rising land costs
• Increased entitlement scrutiny

developers are increasingly evaluating secondary Georgia markets capable of supporting large-scale digital infrastructure projects.

Burke County offers:
Power
Proximity to one of the most significant generation assets in the nation.
Land
Large tracts capable of supporting campus-scale development.
Policy
Economic development organizations actively recruiting technology investment.
Scalability
Opportunities for phased expansion.


THE VOGTLE ADVANTAGE
Why Nuclear Matters
Artificial Intelligence is fundamentally changing data center economics.

Next-generation AI campuses increasingly require:
• 100 MW+
• 250 MW+
• 500 MW+
• Gigawatt-scale planning

Unlike intermittent renewable generation, nuclear energy provides:
• Baseload Reliability
• 24/7 Availability
• Carbon-Free Generation
• Long-Term Capacity Planning

Plant Vogtle's presence creates a unique strategic narrative for hyperscale and AI-focused infrastructure investors evaluating the Southeast.


THE EMERGING SOUTHEAST DATA CENTER CORRIDOR
Burke County sits within a broader regional technology ecosystem.

Nearby data center and technology investment activity includes:

Augusta Region
• QTS Data Centers
• Federal Cybersecurity Presence
• U.S. Army Cyber Command
• NSA Georgia

Columbia County
• White Oak Technology Park
• Technology-Focused Economic Development

Carolinas Technology Corridor
Home to major investments by:
• Microsoft
• Google
• Apple
• Centrilogic

This regional concentration creates a "domino effect" whereby infrastructure investment attracts additional infrastructure investment.


Pro-Business Development Environment

Burke County actively supports economic development initiatives and technology investment.

Advantages include:
• Rural Development Incentives
• Competitive Land Costs
• Streamlined Development Environment
• Workforce Development Programs
• State-Level Economic Incentives

Compared to many major metropolitan jurisdictions, Burke County provides a significantly less congested entitlement environment.

Current observations include:

No dedicated data center ordinance

No known data center moratorium

Existing industrial development pathways

Active economic development efforts

Coldwell Banker Commercial Metro Brokers is pleased to present an exceptional 226.44-acre development opportunity strategically located in Burke County, Georgia, one of the most compelling emerging markets for hyperscale, AI, HPC, and cloud data center development in the Southeastern United States.

The property is positioned within the shadow of the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant, the largest nuclear power facility in the United States, and benefits from proximity to high-voltage transmission infrastructure, regional fiber connectivity, and a pro-growth economic development environment actively pursuing large-scale technology investment.

Unlike the increasingly constrained Atlanta metropolitan market, Burke County offers developers the opportunity to establish large-scale digital infrastructure campuses in a jurisdiction that maintains a favorable entitlement environment, lower land acquisition costs, and access to significant state and local incentives.

The site's combination of scale, infrastructure proximity, and strategic location creates a rare opportunity for developers, hyperscalers, private equity investors, and infrastructure funds seeking a future-ready site capable of supporting significant power-intensive development.

INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS
1. Strategic Location Near the Largest Nuclear Power Plant in America
The property is located in Burke County, home to the Vogtle Electric Generating Plant.
Vogtle is the largest nuclear generating facility in the United States with approximately:

4,800 MW generation capacity
Four operational reactors
AP1000 advanced nuclear technology
Long-term baseload power generation

For power-intensive industries such as AI and hyperscale data centers, proximity to reliable baseload generation represents one of the most important site-selection criteria.

2. Access to High-Voltage Transmission Infrastructure

The property is located near significant transmission assets:
500kV West McIntosh Transmission line - Within 3 Miles
115kV Transmission Line - Within 4 Miles
Regional Fiber Network - Adjacent
The site's strategic location is a little similar to Amazon's Susquehanna nuclear campus data center.
These transmission assets create a strategic advantage involving:
• Large-load service delivery
• Dedicated substations
• Utility-scale interconnections
• Phased power delivery strategies
• Minimizing electrical transmission losses
• Bypassing congested grid substations
• Eliminating lengthy interconnection queues
• Reducing vulnerability to weather-related grid outages

3. Adjacent Fiber Infrastructure

4. Optimized Logistics & Transportation
US Hwy 25 S is a newly paved, four-lane divided highway offering direct freight and logistics connectivity.
Interstate Access: The site is just 30 miles (approx. 30 minutes) from I-20, providing a direct route to Atlanta and the national interstate network.
Port Proximity: It is highly viable for import/export and supply chain operations, situated 95 miles from the Port of Savannah and within reach of the Port of Charleston.

5. Favorable Regulatory Environment

Unlike many jurisdictions implementing restrictive data center ordinances, Burke County currently operates under its traditional land development code.
