West Virginia Digital Infrastructure

Mountains to Megawatts.

Turning underproductive Appalachian land into hyperscale-ready campuses for the AI economy.

We design, build, and deliver — turnkey, end-to-end. One platform. One counterparty. One accountable team from raw acreage through commissioning.

The AI buildout is a race for national security and resilience. West Virginia is perfectly positioned to help win it.

What We Do

A Single Accountable Platform

Appalachia Infra is a West Virginia-based digital infrastructure platform built to serve three constituencies: landowners with underproductive Appalachian holdings, the developers and hyperscalers building the AI economy, and the West Virginia communities that have powered America for a century.

For Landowners

A discreet, structured way to unlock real value from underproductive Appalachian holdings — and to participate in what gets built next on the land your family has held for generations.

For Data Center Developers & Hyperscalers

The fastest credible path to a West Virginia campus. We deliver hyperscale-ready sites on a single accountable platform — not a broker, not a land assembler, not an EPC, but one team carrying a project from raw acreage through commissioning.

For West Virginia

Durable economic development — jobs, tax base, and infrastructure rooted in the counties that have powered America for a century. Every campus we deliver is built to stay.

Why West Virginia

West Virginia is being rediscovered — not for what it once produced, but for what it can power next.

The Mountain State has emerged as one of the most strategically positioned places in the country for data center development, expansion, and investment. Its energy footprint is unmatched: deep baseload generation, abundant low-cost power, and flexible microgrid capacity that delivers the scale and reliability the AI economy demands.

Geography reinforces the case. West Virginia sits in the middle of the country's primary AI compute corridor — between Ashburn, Columbus, and Atlanta — placing campuses within reach of the markets driving demand.

And the state has made it a priority to clear the path. Permitting, regulation, and policy are aligned to let data centers launch quickly and scale without friction.

The Team Behind the Platform

Appalachia Infra is led by Mark Rubin, a 35-year capital market and infrastructure veteran who has advised on more than $25 billion of transaction value across digital infrastructure, energy, real estate, and other capital-intensive sectors. Behind the platform is a cross-disciplined team of senior operators, expert advisors, and supply chain partners.

Team announcements coming soon.
