Prime, a developer and operator of hyperscale and wholesale data centers in America and Europe, announced expansion into the Phoenix market with a five-building, 66.5-acre campus in Avondale.
Prime Phoenix will feature 210MW of critical power and 1.3MSF of space. The project will culminate in a sustainable, high-density data center campus designed to support hyperscale services providers, large Internet brands, global technology companies and the Fortune 500 enterprise.
The Avondale location is in Maricopa County a few minutes west of downtown Phoenix. Dark fiber access from the campus will provide customers with low-latency connectivity to local carrier-hotel meet-me rooms and Internet exchange points. The first data center at the campus is projected for Q3 2025 completion and will provide 260.4KSF and 42MW to the capacity-constrained market.
Prime will provide customers access to reliable, 100% renewable energy. Additionally, the closed-loop cooling system at each Phoenix data center will save millions of gallons of water when compared to evaporative systems. The result will be near-zero Water Usage Effectiveness and 97% less water consumed than an equally sized residential neighborhood. (Source)
