44521 Hastings Drive (ACC5)
44521 Hastings Drive, Ashburn, VA, 20147, US
ACC5 at 44521 Hastings Drive in Ashburn was described by its developer as the prototype for its ground-up projects, on the strength of its power capacity and flexible design. It carries 36.4 MW of critical load within a total electrical load of 59.6 MW, fed at 34.5 kV from two separate points into sixteen 5 MVA pad-mount transformers, across 176,000 sq ft of raised floor in a 360,000 sq ft building. The cooling plant is built for scale: sixteen chillers, sixteen cooling towers, roughly 480 CRAH units and half a million gallons of chilled-water thermal storage across two cross-connected plants. The LINX NoVA internet exchange node was built in this building, and the site holds Open-IX certification alongside LEED Gold.
