谷歌拟在罗阿诺克县建数据中心 尽职调查将持续到2027年3月
科技巨头谷歌（Google）计划在弗吉尼亚州罗阿诺克（Roanoke）县建设一座新的数据中心。弗吉尼亚西部地区工业设施管理局（WVRIFA）已于10月16日确认，正与谷歌就出售土地进行谈判。
WVRIFA 主席 Jill Loope 在声明中说：“WVRIFA 已同意与谷歌签订意向书，谷歌将在 Wood Haven 科技园进行为期到2027年3月的尽职调查，以评估其建设数据中心的可能性。”据 WVTF 报道，一家名为 Clearview Dynamics LLC 的公司已经以约150万美元购入了该科技园内的一块土地，未来可能作为数据中心建设用地。谷歌尚未公布投资规模和开工时间。罗阿诺克地区拥有相对便宜的土地、电力和凉爽的气候，近年来已吸引多家云计算与数据中心运营商布局。（GSM 据 WVTF 报道）
Google Eyes Data Center in Roanoke County; Due Diligence Runs Through March 2027
Google plans to build a new data center in Roanoke County, Virginia. The Western Virginia Regional Industrial Facility Authority (WVRIFA) confirmed on Oct. 16 that it is in talks with Google over a land sale.
'WVRIFA has agreed to a letter of intent with Google, which will conduct due diligence at the Wood Haven Technology Park through March 2027 to evaluate the possibility of building a data center there,' WVRIFA chair Jill Loope said in a statement. A company called Clearview Dynamics LLC has already purchased a parcel in the park for about $1.5 million that could serve as the data center site, WVTF reported. Google has not announced an investment figure or construction timeline. The Roanoke area's relatively inexpensive land, power and cool climate have drawn several cloud and data center operators in recent years. (GSM, via WVTF)
