Dalton 1
Project of Core Scientific
Where it stands
Dalton 1 at 2205 Industrial South Rd, Dalton, GA was a roughly 50 MW bitcoin-mining site and is being converted into a 30 MW critical IT HPC/AI data center for CoreWeave, with 50 MW of grid capacity. As of the April 2026 8-K, construction had commenced and substantial completion and license commencement were expected in H1 2026. No passage confirms completion or billing, and the May 2026 10-Q only notes that the license was assigned to a CoreWeave SPV. The separate 145 MW Dalton 4 campus at 3024 Old Tilton Road is excluded.
