Legal dispute between Clifton Twp., developer clouds future of data centers
A legal dispute between Clifton Township, Pennsylvania, and developer Quantm Group is clouding the future of a portion of Project Gold, an $18 billion data center campus. While a new conditional use application for six data centers and 900-megawatt battery storage has been filed in nearby Covington Township, Clifton Township's data center zoning ordinance was recently declared void by a county judge due to procedural issues. The developer maintains flexibility to proceed with the project even if it cannot move forward in Clifton Township.
