FORT PIERCE, Fla., Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Atlas Compute today announced it has secured land and critical utility infrastructure for the development of a 240-megawatt (MW) AI-ready data center campus in Central Florida, with a planned expansion of up to 1 gigawatt (GW) of high-performance computing capacity. The project positions Atlas Compute as a key player in the rapidly accelerating market for AI and hyperscale digital infrastructure.
The Atlas Compute Campus will feature purpose-built, liquid-cooled facilities optimized for NVIDIA GPU-powered workloads, designed to support the next generation of artificial intelligence, cloud, and machine learning applications. Phase 1 construction will deliver 240 MW of operational capacity, with full build-out to 1 GW across multiple buildings engineered for 100 kW per-rack density. The project is targeting operational readiness between Q4 2026 and Q1 2027.
Atlas Compute has selected Penguin Solutions, a global leader in high-performance computing and AI factory infrastructure, to design, build, deploy, and manage the AI infrastructure in our new state-of-the-art data center campus. Leveraging Penguin’s expertise in advanced thermal management and compute-optimized environments tailored for AI workloads, this facility is expected to meet the highest standards of efficiency, performance, and reliability.
“This milestone marks the foundation of one of the largest purpose-built AI data center developments in the region,” said Anthony Louie Velasco, CEO of Atlas Compute. “Securing the land and utility capacity enables us to move rapidly toward construction and deliver transformative compute infrastructure that supports global demand for AI innovation.”
The Central Florida site offers strategic advantages, including confirmed gas supply, diverse fiber connectivity, and access to Florida’s robust power grid and port infrastructure. The campus will incorporate next-generation cooling technology that eliminates the need for water use, significantly reducing environmental impact while maintaining optimal thermal performance for dense AI compute environments.
At full capacity, the campus will provide a scalable platform for AI companies, hyperscalers, and cloud providers seeking sustainable, low-latency compute capacity on the U.S. East Coast. Each phase of development has been engineered to meet Tier III operational standards, delivering 99.982 percent uptime and high energy efficiency through modular expansion.
