# TJX New Albany Data Center

PJM data center · https://askthegrid.com/assets/facilities/tjx-new-albany-data-center

TJX's New Albany data center is an enterprise facility completed in 2011, predating the city's later hyperscale campuses. Electrical contractor Mid-City Electric describes two 35 kV circuits, five 2.5 MVA transformers and five 2,500 kW backup generators installed for the project. Those historical equipment ratings describe the electrical design, not present electricity demand. City tax-incentive records separately document the development agreement and reported 2020 investment and employment. The exact building lies in AEP Ohio's PJM service territory, offering a distinct retail-enterprise load profile alongside the region's cloud providers.

## Identity and location

- Operating status: operating
- Asset scope: building
- Location: New Albany, OH
- Operator: TJX (exact asset) — https://www.tjx.com/
- Contractor: Mid-City Electric (exact asset) — https://www.midcityelectric.com/portfolio/project/tjx/

## Power and grid context

- ISO/RTO: PJM Interconnection
- Electric utility: AEP Ohio

## Development

- Construction: Mid-City Electric dates completion to 2011 and describes an 82,000-square-foot facility. The city's 2021 incentive review describes approximately 60,000 square feet under a 2010 development agreement. The sources do not reconcile their different area scopes; neither figure is treated as critical IT floor space.

## Compute and operations

- Facility classes: enterprise
- Operating context: The project serves TJX rather than being marketed as a multi-tenant colocation campus. Mid-City Electric calls its design Tier III; that contractor description is not independent proof of an Uptime Institute certification. New Albany's current data-center community page includes TJX among its operators.
