The record, newest first

  1. DC BLOX listed Charleston North at Camp Hall as a 64.4-acre hyperscale campus in planning, served by Santee Cooper. (DC BLOX, Jan. 2025; DC BLOX, undated)

  2. Reporting said Santee Cooper's board had discussed selling DC BLOX a 64.5-acre Camp Hall parcel for about $17.7 million, with DC BLOX returning its original 27.5 acres; the Joint Bond Review Committee had to approve the sale. The plan called for three 150,000 sq ft buildings and an onsite substation. (Post and Courier, Jan. 27, 2024)

  3. DC BLOX said it had bought 27.5 acres from Santee Cooper at Camp Hall and secured power for a planned 45 MW, four-building data center of about 200,000 sq ft. (DC BLOX (Business Wire), Sept. 27, 2023; American Public Power Association, Oct. 23, 2023)

Conflicts and open questions

  • No record was found confirming that the 64.5-acre sale closed or that the Joint Bond Review Committee approved it.
  • Building sizes differ between the 2024 reported plan (three 150,000 sq ft buildings) and later company material (about 1.13 million sq ft).
  • Coordinates approximate, Camp Hall commerce park area.
