US data center operator DartPoints is expanding its data center in South Carolina.

The company this week announced a $125 million expansion of its Greenville County facility from 2.5MW to 12.5MW, adding 88,000 square feet (8,175 sqm) of high-density space.

The Greenville facility will feature flexible cooling systems capable of supporting densities up to 120kW per rack.

“This project builds on DartPoints’ collaboration with state and local partners to expand access to Critical IT Power in high-growth regions,” said Scott Willis, president and CEO of DartPoints. “Greenville has been a part of our platform for nearly two decades. Expanding our Critical IT Power in this market strengthens the local technology ecosystem while giving customers the performance, efficiency, and reliability they need closer to where their data lives.”

GSP01, located in Greenville’s Global Business Park at 78 Global Drive, Suite 100, in Greenville, opened around 2007. The facility was developed and previously operated by Comporium Communications-backed Immedion, which merged with DartPoints in 2021.

DartPoints announced plans to expand a number of sites, including Greenville, in August, though it didn’t provide details on each location. The Greenville County council approved DartPoint’s request to expand the 78 Global Drive site in September.

“DartPoints’ growth in Greenville shows how innovation and infrastructure investment go hand in hand,” said South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster. “This project reinforces South Carolina’s position as a destination for technology-driven business and demonstrates how our state can support advanced digital operations with the power, talent, and collaboration they require to thrive.”

Founded in 2012, DartPoints serves more than 900 enterprise customers, including major universities, hospital systems, and Fortune 500 companies, from 11 data centers in 10 markets across South Carolina, North Carolina, Ohio, Indiana, and Louisiana.

Investment fund Nova Infrastructure purchased a majority stake in the company earlier this year. Orion Infrastructure Capital also became a minority stakeholder, while the previous owner, Astra, retained a minority holding.
