5C Data Centers has announced plans for a new data centre in Phoenix, Arizona, as it looks to expand in the region.

The PHX01 facility is scheduled to go live in 2025, and will mark the company’s first data centre in Arizona.

It will provide 20 MW of critical IT power capacity and will be able to support power densities of up to 132 kW per cabinet. The site will utilise adiabatic trim cooling and heat-tolerant coolant inlet temperatures with the aim of minimising water and power usage.

“Expanding our footprint to Phoenix marks a significant milestone for 5C Data Centers, as we continue to support the growing demand for high-performance and sustainable data centre solutions,” said Steve Perez, Chief Executive Officer of 5C Data Centers.

“Data centre investment is a vital component to meeting the growing advancements of the technology cluster,” added Greater Phoenix Economic Council President & CEO Chris Camacho.

“5C Data Centers’ work and commitment to operating with sustainable practices will help Greater Phoenix’s high-tech ecosystem continue to grow.”
