Microsoft AVC43 is a data center in South Hill, Mecklenburg County, Virginia, named in a Virginia DEQ air registration approved on July 12, 2023. The registration covers two units, AVC43-1 and AVC43-2, with 40 large and 2 small diesel backup generators. A construction stormwater permit for the site lists about 138.78 acres of development. Microsoft is the permit holder. Public records reviewed give no site load or utility interconnection figure, and generator ratings are backup equipment rather than grid demand.
