DC BLOX Secures $1.15 Billion Green Loan for Atlanta Data Center Campus Development

DC BLOX, a prominent provider of connected data center and fiber network solutions in the Southeastern United States, has announced the closure of a $1.15 billion green loan aimed at financing the construction of a data center campus in Douglas County, Georgia. This development is poised to cater to the escalating demands for cloud and AI workloads, with the project including a 120 MW data center and provisions for an additional 80 MW expansion by 2027.

Melih Ileri, SVP of Capital Markets & Strategy at DC BLOX, highlighted the significance of this financing, stating it reflects confidence in the company's track record of timely and excellent project delivery. This achievement follows DC BLOX's recent initiatives, including the establishment of multiple hyperscale edge nodes across the Southeast, further solidifying its position in the region's digital infrastructure landscape.

Jeff Uphues, CEO of DC BLOX, emphasized the project's role in supporting the Southeast's burgeoning economy, particularly in Atlanta, which is currently the fastest-growing data center market in the U.S. The financing builds on previous financial milestones, including a $265 million green loan and growth equity from Post Road Group in late 2024, positioning DC BLOX to address the surging demand for digital infrastructure driven by hyperscaler expansion.

Michael Bogdan, Managing Partner at Post Road Group, commended DC BLOX's management for their strategic focus on customer and community service, which has been instrumental in the company's growth. The financing was facilitated by a consortium of leading financial institutions, with ING Capital LLC serving as the Structuring and Administrative Agent, among others. Legal counsel for the transaction was provided by A&O Shearman for DC BLOX and Milbank for the lenders.

This development underscores DC BLOX's commitment to enhancing digital infrastructure in the Southeast, enabling businesses to expand their digital footprint and contribute to the region's economic growth. For more information on DC BLOX and its projects, visit https://www.dcblox.com.
