Alabama data centers, in short
Alabama has 32 data centers identified from primary sources, spread across 11 cities and counties and run by 14 operators. The largest concentration is Huntsville, with 10 data centers, followed by Birmingham with 8 and Montgomery with 4.
The operators with the most data centers in Alabama are Southern Telecom (4), Meta (4), Google (3), Verizon Wireless (2), DC BLOX (2). Colocation and interconnection providers appear most often because they publish building-level detail; hyperscale campuses appear where the operator or the county names the individual buildings.
Not every operator discloses size. In Alabama, 4 publish a floor area and 4 publish a power figure, and each figure is shown against the data center it belongs to rather than added into one number. They are not the same measurement: one operator states the floor area of a single building, another the full capacity of a campus it has only announced.
NON-RTO There is no RTO or ISO market in Alabama, so each utility and the state commission set interconnection terms. 1 statewide measure governing data centers is on record, alongside 8 local pauses. 2 named projects in Alabama are delayed, blocked or under challenge, and the capital atlas records 1 site here carrying $1.5B in announced commitments.
