AVAIO Digital is developing the Hercules campus in Appomattox County, Virginia as an approximately $3 billion project. The power design combines about 300 MW of grid service with as much as 700 MW of behind-the-meter generation for a 1 GW baseload envelope. That figure describes the site power design, not IT capacity.
