Data centers could become a bigger part of Henrico County’s business landscape.
One center is planned for the White Oak Technology Park in eastern Henrico and could cover 2.5 million square feet across four buildings.
Another operator — Peak 10 — wants to build a 72,500-square-foot data center off Villa Park Drive in northern Henrico. Peak 10 already operates a 37,000-square-foot data center on Park Central Drive, about 2.5 miles away.
The Henrico Planning Commission on Thursday approved a plan of development for the White Oak data center, which is referred to in planning documents only by the code name “Project Echo.”
