± 719 AC Available for Data Center / Renewable Energy Use
±719 AC data center development site · 115 KV transmission & gas pipeline on-property
Marketing description
Rare large-scale greenfield assemblage in Clay County, Southwest Georgia, positioned for data center, AI infrastructure, hyperscale campus, or utility-scale battery storage (BESS) development. The ±719-acre property combines on-property 115 KV Georgia Power transmission, a natural gas transmission pipeline crossing the site, and proximity to 130 MW of carbon-free hydroelectric baseload — a combination of attributes rarely found in a single Southeast greenfield site.
Located in Southern Company / NERC SERC reliability territory, the property sits outside ERCOT and PJM constraints. Two 115 KV in-service substations bracket the site north and south within approximately 12-13 miles, with a direct tap node (Tap172561) on the local Georgia Power network. The on-property gas pipeline (Southern Natural Gas territory) enables on-site generation, cogeneration, or thermal cooling installations.
Walter F. George Reservoir / Lake Eufaula sits approximately 10 miles west, providing 45,181 acres of cooling water optionality alongside the Upper Floridan Aquifer for groundwater. The Walter F. George Hydroelectric Plant (130 MW USACE facility) anchors the regional grid ~15 miles NW at Fort Gaines, supplemented by Plant Vogtle's 2,234 MW of new carbon-free nuclear baseload commissioned in 2023-24.
The site qualifies for Georgia's High-Tech Data Center Equipment sales and use tax exemption (O.C.G.A. § 48-8-3(68.1), extended through 2031), and Clay County's designation as a Tier 1 distressed county maximizes available jobs tax credits. Additional incentives include Georgia Quick Start workforce training, potential local tax abatement via the Clay County Industrial Development Authority, and Georgia's right-to-work, no-franchise-tax business environment.
Kudzu Networks fiber serves the site with 1 Gbps symmetric service. Address-specific carrier availability should be confirmed via the FCC National Broadband Map. The property comprises seven contiguous parcels totaling ±719 acres of gently rolling upland terrain favorable for graded development pads with minimal earthwork.
Location: Bluffton, Clay County, GA · ZIP 39824 · ~47 mi from Albany, ~79 mi from Columbus, ~94 mi from Tallahassee, ~181 mi from Atlanta.
All infrastructure specifics derived from third-party GIS sources. Buyer to independently verify via PHMSA NPMS (pipeline), FCC National Broadband Map (fiber), Georgia Power (transmission and substation), Clay County tax assessor (acreage and zoning), and FEMA NFHL (floodplain).
