Vantage Data Centers' planned VA4 campus in the Fredericksburg, Virginia, region will be the company’s fourth in the Commonwealth.

Located in Stafford County just over an hour from Vantage’s three existing Virginia campuses in Data Center Alley, VA4 will house three data centers on 82 acres totaling approximately 929,000 square feet. The campus will be built to achieve LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Silver certification and in alignment with Vantage’s “sustainable by design” blueprint, operating with a closed-loop chilled water system that minimizes the need for large volumes of water for cooling and supports Vantage’s industry-leading low water usage effectiveness (WUE). VA4 will feature liquid-to-liquid cooling with CDU-based equipment capable of handling 100% of IT workloads. The first building is scheduled to open in late 2027.

“The Fredericksburg region offered a significant opportunity for Vantage to serve our customers seeking capacity and access to the resources of Data Center Alley without being in the high congestion zone,” said Dana Adams, president, North America at Vantage Data Centers. “Virginia has been a cornerstone of Vantage’s North American growth since we first entered the market in 2017, and we’re pleased to expand our presence to the Fredericksburg region—helping establish it as a meaningful digital hub while contributing to the area’s economic growth and technological advancements.”

In recognition of Vantage’s entrance into the Fredericksburg region, the company and its general contractor, DPR Construction, hosted a groundbreaking celebration earlier today featuring prominent local officials, including:

• Luis Lopez Stipes, Deputy Secretary of Commerce and Trade, Commonwealth of Virginia
• Meg Bohmke, Falmouth Supervisor, Stafford County
• Don Slaiman, Director of Community Relations, IBEW Local 26

“Vantage Data Centers will create hundreds of jobs and support Stafford’s growing reputation as a technology hub across the Commonwealth,” said Darrell English, Hartwood District Stafford County Board of Supervisor. “This project brings advanced infrastructure that powers the technologies we rely on more and more every day, while strengthening our local economy and business community.”

As Vantage establishes its presence in Fredericksburg and Stafford County, the VA4 campus will serve as a catalyst for regional growth by creating new employment opportunities, driving investment in local businesses and strengthening the area’s tax base. Beyond the economic impact, Vantage aims to foster lasting partnerships with local organizations to support workforce development and community initiatives. Through collaboration with schools, general contractors, workforce boards and civic organizations, Vantage will help prepare residents for careers in the skilled trades and technology sectors while contributing to the overall vitality of the region.
