US colo firm Ark has started work to expand its data center campus in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
“We’re thrilled to announce that we have officially broken ground on our 2MW expansion at our Green Bay data center!” the company said on LinkedIn this week. “Since acquiring this 24.5-acre site in December 2023, we’ve been working diligently to bring our vision to life. This expansion is the first phase to transform the site into a robust 20 MW+ data center campus.”
The company acquired land and a data center in the village of Harrison, just southeast of Appleton, from Kimberly-Clark late last year. It officially launched the facility in June.
The company also operates in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Iowa, Minnesota, Idaho, and Arizona. It recently announced an expansion of its Tucson, Arizona data center to 1MW and the launch of two Internet Exchanges in Boise, Idaho, and Tuscon, Arizona.
Founded in 2007 through the merger of TRC and CoVault, Ark – then Involta – was acquired by the Carlyle Group in late 2021. It rebranded to Ark earlier this year.
