Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of August 26, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Novva Colorado Springs Data Center in Colorado Springs, El Paso County, Colorado 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 reports waterless cooling using chilled-water CRAHs plus 8,000+ hours a year of ambient high-altitude air cooling.

Notes on the record

Novva acquired the campus (a 190,000 sq ft data center built in 2005 with 6 MW of designed capacity, plus an industrial building) for $38.5 million, announced 2021-08-31, and committed over $200 million to expand it. The operator's current facility page lists 40 MW, 122,000 sq ft of data hall plus 55,000 sq ft of office, on a 68-acre campus with 37 acres available for expansion. investmentUsd records the stated campus expansion commitment, not the acquisition price.

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
  • How the community has received it
  • Which utility serves 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.
How the community has received it
Planning commission and governing body minutes, public comment records, and any petition or lawsuit filed in the county.
Which utility serves it
The electric service agreement or the utility's filing with the state public utility commission.

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.
