Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of September 23, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over 5C Data Centers PHX01 in Phoenix, Maricopa County County, Arizona appears in the sources this registry tracks. That is an absence in our sources rather than a finding that none exists, and local opposition often predates any coverage a national dataset would pick up.
If you live near this site and something is happening that this page does not show, that is worth telling us. Send us the document and it goes in the record with the source attached. For sites where opposition is already established, see every contested site we track.
Power and water
Operator describes "adiabatic trim cooling and heat-tolerant coolant inlet temperatures" to minimise power and water consumption, with direct-to-chip liquid cooling supported at up to 132kW per cabinet. Classified hybrid because adiabatic trim switches between dry and evaporative-assist modes; not independently verified.
Notes on the record
140,000 sq ft first building, roughly three miles west of downtown Phoenix; described as the first building of a 5C campus.
What the record does not establish, and the document that would
In every fight on our tracker the decisive fact came out of a public records request. These are the requests for this site.
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- Permanent jobs promised
- Land area
- How the community has received it
Which document closes each gap
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- The abatement, PILOT, or development agreement approved by the county, city, or development authority, and the state's data center sales tax exemption certificate if one was issued.
- Permanent jobs promised
- The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.
- Land area
- The rezoning application, the plat, or the deed recorded with the county.
- How the community has received it
- Planning commission and governing body minutes, public comment records, and any petition or lawsuit filed in the county.
Have one of these documents? Send it to us and we will add it to the record with attribution.

Distances are between recorded coordinates, many of which are a city or county centroid, so treat them as approximate. Cumulative load on one utility and one aquifer is the question a planning commission rarely asks.
