Meta commits to spending $10 billion on a new Louisiana data center for AI
At 2,250 acres, it will be the company’s biggest ever campus
Louisiana will see new job creation and local infrastructure investments
Social networking giant Meta has confirmed plans to invest $10 billion in a new data center designed to support its artificial intelligence systems, and it’ll be Meta’s largest data center to date.
With northeast Louisiana selected for its construction, it’s set to spread out over 2,250 acres on a site formerly known as Franklin Farm, extending as much as one mile from front to back at its largest cross section. The data center will also include a four-million-square-foot technology campus.
