Construction has started in earnest at Meta's $27 billion AI data centre campus in rural Louisiana, one of the largest single-site data centre investments ever announced. The facility is designed to support Meta's AI training infrastructure with an estimated 1,500 MW of capacity at full buildout.
The project is already transforming the local economy, bringing thousands of construction jobs to a region with limited prior industrial development. The campus represents Meta's strategy of building in locations with available power and land, even when far from traditional data centre markets.
