Twiggs County — located in the middle of Georgia about 100 miles southeast of Atlanta — is one of the state’s least populous counties, with about 7,700 residents. Twiggs County was due to hold various public question and answer sessions on September 16-17 at the request of Eagle Rock Partners, according to the county website. The proposed “hyperscale” data center is the latest in a list of dozens of energy-hungry data center developments announced in Georgia over the past year, making the state the nation’s fastest-growing data center market. Some Twiggs County residents say that the company has not been transparent about its plans and are calling for more information. This story was updated with responses from Twiggs County and Georgia Power at 5:59 p.m. EDT on September 17, 2025.
