Data centers in Alabama: common questions

How many data centers are in Alabama?
More Than Just Parks tracks 45 active data center facilities in Alabama, each citing a public source: 26 operating, 9 under construction and 10 proposed. 8 more were canceled, withdrawn, suspended or blocked.
Where are the data centers in Alabama?
Alabama's data centers are in 14 counties. The most are in Jefferson County (10), Madison County (10) and Montgomery County (5). The busiest places are around Sterrett, Auburn and Bessemer.
How much electricity do Alabama's data centers use?
We don’t publish a state total, and the reason matters: about seven in ten facilities here never disclose a capacity, so any sum would look like a census of Alabama's data center load while leaving out the sites that stayed quiet. Each facility page shows the figure its own source states. A single large campus can draw as much power as a small city.
Are Alabama data centers near protected land?
21 of the tracked facilities in Alabama sit within 10 miles of protected public land, measured to the real boundary of the nearest national park, wilderness area, wildlife refuge or conservation area; 4 sit within a single mile.
Which county in Alabama has the most data centers?
Jefferson County has the most, with 10 tracked data centers, followed by Madison County (10) and Montgomery County (5).
Are there proposed data centers in Alabama?
Yes. We track 10 proposed data centers in Alabama, including Project Marvel (Bessemer Hyperscale), Wilsonville Hyperscale Data Center (NorthPoint Development) and Western Hospitality Childersburg Data Center. 2 of them sit within 10 miles of protected public land.
Who is building data centers in Alabama?
The most active operators in Alabama are DC BLOX (5 sites), Meta (4 sites) and tw telecom (Lumen) (2 sites), counted by sites, not megawatts.
