Meta Data Centers
At Meta, we strive to give people the power to build community and bring the world closer together. Our data centers, like the one in the Stanton Springs, Georgia, area, help bring that mission to life by enabling billions of people around the world to connect every day. Beyond their role as the physical backbone of our apps and services, Meta’s data centers drive significant positive impact in the communities where they are located and beyond.
ECONOMY We help grow and diversify local economies by supporting new jobs, sourcing from local vendors and generating revenue for municipalities. From 2010 to 2019, Meta invested more than $16 billion in U.S. data center construction and operations, which supported over 238,000 jobs with $16.4 billion in earnings flowing into local economies.
COMMUNITY We support community vitality by investing in local schools, ´µ´¶¸µÇº¹§´ª©µ³³»´¯º¿ projects. Since 2011, Meta has contributed more than $24 million in direct funding to U.S. data center communities, as well as volunteer time, to provide technology for community benefit, connect people online or off and improve STEM education.
SUSTAINABILITY We build and operate some of the world’s most sustainable data centers and add new renewable energy to each data center’s local grid. Meta data centers have achieved net zero carbon emissions, are LEED® Gold level certified and supported by 100% renewable energy . They use 32% less energy , are 80% more water-efficient on average than industry standard, and we’re committed to restoring more water than we consume by 2030.
