T5 Data Centers filed applications to develop the T5 Atlanta IV data center campus in South Fulton County, Georgia, according to Data Center Dynamics. The campus is planned for a 91-acre site and will support up to 200 MW of critical IT load capacity across three data center buildings totaling approximately 1.32 million square feet. Phase 1 delivery is targeted for 2027, with on-site electrical substation service expected to become operational in 2026 ahead of the first phase opening.
The project is sited in South Fulton, the rapidly developing southwestern quadrant of Fulton County where land availability and proximity to transmission infrastructure have made it one of the most active corridors in the Atlanta data center market. T5 Data Centers, a U.S. developer with existing campuses in Atlanta, Dallas, Portland, Chicago, and Los Angeles, positions the Atlanta IV campus as a purpose-built AI-ready facility with higher power density, advanced cooling architecture, and rapid deployment capability.
T5 Atlanta IV joins a substantial pipeline of development in the greater Atlanta area. Cushman & Wakefield's 2026 Global Data Center Market Comparison ranked Atlanta second among all U.S. markets by total commissioned capacity, with a multigigawatt active pipeline and additional capacity in advanced planning across Clayton, Cobb, DeKalb, Douglas, Fulton, and Gwinnett counties. Microsoft, AWS, Google, Meta, and Digital Realty all have active or planned investments in the market.
Atlanta's ascent from a Tier 2 market to a top-tier U.S. data center destination has been driven by available land, favorable transmission access, a supportive state regulatory environment following Governor Kemp's veto of a data center tax exemption suspension bill, and proximity to the Southeast's growing population and enterprise customer base.
