Hensel Phelps has been chosen to construct an $800 million data center in Montgomery, Alabama for technology company Meta. The facility, which will be Meta's 24th data hub and its 20th in the U.S., is designed to have net-zero operational carbon emissions and will be completely powered by renewable energy. The project is seeking LEED Gold certification and will incorporate water-efficient cooling technology, rainwater capture systems, and native vegetation. Completion of the project is expected in late 2026 and will involve over 1,000 construction workers. [Extracted from the article]
