Today, we announced that we’re breaking ground on our 25th U.S. Meta data center in El Paso, Texas! Meta data centers are making a positive impact on local communities, including investing in local schools and nonprofits, partnering on new clean and renewable energy projects and local water restoration projects, and supporting local jobs to build and operate the data center.

We're building the future of human connection and once operational, the El Paso Data Center will be optimized for our AI workloads, giving people new ways to connect, find communities and grow their businesses.
