Microsoft is building a four building, roughly 980,000 square foot data center campus known as FTY101 on 160 acres at 1601 North River Road in Douglasville, part of its East US 3 Azure region that also includes sites in Fulton County. On August 10, 2026 Microsoft confirmed it is unwinding local property tax abatement deals here and at two Fulton County sites, East Point and Palmetto, saying the reputational cost of the tax breaks now outweighs the savings. Some third party trackers report a target capacity around 300 megawatts for this site, but that figure has not been independently confirmed by Microsoft or the county.

East Village Dothan (EdgeConneX) EdgeConneX
EdgeConneX proposed a six building, 4.4 million square foot data center campus with a utility substation on about 700 acres near the Interstate 20 and Liberty Road area of western Douglas County, close to Villa Rica. After a packed public hearing where the project size drew audible jeers from residents, Douglas County commissioners voted 4-1 on July 7, 2026 to deny the rezoning request, the second time in about seven months that county leaders rejected a large data center proposal on this same property.

Power bills in Douglas County
Most of the county is served by GreyStone Power, with parts on Georgia Power. GreyStone Power was originally chartered as Douglas County Electric Membership Corporation. As a cooperative, its wholesale power comes mostly from Oglethorpe Power.
Oglethorpe Power, which generates most of the electricity Georgia's EMCs sell, is adding natural gas plants it ties to data center and industrial load. EMC rates are set by each cooperative's board, not the Public Service Commission, so watch your EMC's rate notices.
Oglethorpe Power is the wholesale generation and transmission cooperative owned by Georgia's 38 electric membership cooperatives, and it is not directly rate regulated by the Georgia Public Service Commission the way Georgia Power is, so there is no PSC docket number for its generation projects. Oglethorpe Power has announced plans to build new natural gas generation to meet rising load from its EMC members, including a large combined cycle gas plant near its existing Smarr Energy Facility in Monroe County targeted for around 2029, plus a smaller gas addition at the Talbot Energy Facility targeted for 2028. Reported cost estimates for the Monroe County plant vary across sources, from around 2 billion dollars to as much as 3.3 billion dollars, so the exact figure is unclear. No specific verified dollar impact on individual electric membership cooperative household bills has been published yet, since those retail rates are set separately by each member cooperative.
