Developer proposes hyperscale data center in Russell, Greenup County, Kentucky

Rubix Data Centers, a subsidiary of Submer Group, proposes an 8-12 billion dollar hyperscale data center at a former steel mill site in Russell, Greenup County, Kentucky. The project is expected to consume 2 gigawatts of electricity and 55 million gallons of water annually. The city of Russell had previously enacted a moratorium on data center applications, which the developer's consultant expressed concern about.
