LightHouse Data Centers has launched a platform to develop hyperscale data centers in partnership with Wharton Digital, targeting over 2GW of capacity. The firm plans to bring 300MW of near-term capacity online within the next couple of years.

The focus is on markets in the US Southeast, Southwest, and Midwest, with multiple campuses expected to be operational by late 2026 and early 2027. Wharton has invested in LightHouse and contributed its powered land business to the venture.

LightHouse's current projects in the Southeast include CLT01 (48MW in 2026, 288MW total), CLT02 (16MW in 2026, 38MW total), and CHS01 (16MW in 2026, 128MW total). Additionally, plans for a 240MW campus in the Midwest and a 60MW facility along the I-85 corridor are also underway.
