Lambda 宣布于2026年11月4日表示,它计划在阿拉巴马州洛恩德斯县建造红色克莱技术中心校园,估计有331亿美元的投资准备由Cloverleaf基础设施公司开发。
Cloverleaf 称 Lambda将成为校园的最终用户,美国80号高速公路和阿拉巴马21号高速公路附近的场地封顶为2200英亩,除非该县同意更多。
兰布达预计2027年第一季度开工建设,耗时长达5年。 阿拉巴马州电力供应将等待监管批准,随着规划的进展,最终设计细节尚待制定。 因此,宣布时间表取决于批准和进一步规划。
核准的税务条件和当地雇用
当地框架在Lambda宣布前获得批准。 Cloverleaf报道说,根据县经济发展委员会2026年10月9日的建议,洛恩德斯县委员会于2026年10月13日批准了开发协议。 这些协定为挫折、噪音、用水、照明和备用发电机规定了具有约束力的标准,并规定了向设施运营商承担的义务。
税收条款允许在20年内减少50%的县非教育性财产税以及具体的销售和使用税,而学校税则排除在外。 1000兆瓦模型预计2027–2049年减税后缴纳的税费收入为28.5亿美元,包括当地学校16.1亿美元,加亚拉巴马州5.8亿美元。 这些名义美元估计数取决于最终投资、时间和估值。
如果第一座建筑未能在2030年12月30日的任职期限之前偿还减税,则问责制规定必须偿还减税,但需经过允许的拖延。 在连续超过6个月没有数据中心操作的情况下,减排也会自动终止。
Lambda项目在开发期间有1 000多个建筑工作,225多个全职业务、技术和支助角色。 它计划与当地伙伴合作,为县居民和承包商寻找机会,而发展协议包括当地雇用和承包商的偏好。
电力、水和社区承诺
Lambda将支付设施所需的电力和电网基础设施的全部费用,办法是预先作出财政承诺,即使项目计划有所改变也适用,目的是将这些费用从阿拉巴马电力公司现有的客户中扣除。 Lambda和Alabama Power签署了白宫利率支付者保护承诺书,其五项承诺包括新的电力供应、交付基础设施、不论是否使用电力的商定费率付款、当地劳动力投资以及电网和社区复原力。
在冷却方面,与传统数据中心系统相比,Lambda 称闭路技术大大减少了用水量。 计划与N-Drip建立的伙伴关系旨在帮助当地农民节水,并至少像设施使用时一样返还水。 县标准优先安排非水冷或闭舱冷却,每天10万加仑的上限使用,包括冷却系统填充日,并需要公司出资的水电能力过剩的水更新。
设计中还包括挫折,缓冲,降噪措施,暗黑Sky照明和视线模型,以指导建筑物的布置和限制对邻居属性的影响。
Lambda和Cloverleaf正通过与阿拉巴马中部社区基金会作出的社区福利承诺投资1 000万美元。 该时间表最初拨款100万美元,在电力服务合同的执行和管理批准后拨款400万美元,在开工后五年内拨款500万美元。
对照这些承诺进行监管审批、最后设计和交付,是该项目的主要检验标准。 县框架得到批准,但施工时间表仍不确定,而后期的社区付款取决于电力服务和施工里程碑。

Lambda Plans Alabama AI Data Center Campus in Lowndes County
Add Unite.AI to your preferred sources on Google
Lambda announced on November 4, 2026, that it plans to build the Red Clay Technology Center Campus in Lowndes County, Alabama, an estimated $33.1 billion investment prepared for development by Cloverleaf Infrastructure.
Cloverleaf said Lambda will serve as the campus’s end user while the developer continues preparing the site, and its October 5 commissioner packet sets a 1,000-megawatt base case with potential expansion to 1,500 megawatts. The site near U.S. Highway 80 and Alabama Highway 21 is capped at 2,200 acres unless the county consents to more.
Lambda expects construction to begin in the first quarter of 2027 and take up to five years. Alabama Power would supply the electricity pending regulatory approval, and final design details remain to be developed as planning progresses. The announced timetable therefore depends on both that approval and further planning.
Approved Tax Terms and Local Hiring
The local framework was approved before Lambda’s announcement. Cloverleaf reported that the Lowndes County Commission approved the development agreements on October 13, 2026, following the county economic development commission’s October 9, 2026 recommendation. The agreements establish binding standards for setbacks, noise, water use, lighting and backup generators, with obligations that carry forward to the facility’s operator.
The tax terms allow a 20-year abatement of 50% of county non-educational property taxes and specified sales and use taxes, while school taxes are excluded. The 1,000-megawatt model projects $2.85 billion in county revenue from taxes paid during 2027–2049 after abatement, including $1.61 billion for local schools, plus $0.58 billion for Alabama. Those nominal-dollar estimates depend on final investment, timing and valuation.
Accountability provisions require repayment of abated taxes if the first building misses the December 30, 2030 in-service deadline, subject to permitted delays. The abatement also terminates automatically after more than six consecutive months without data center operations.
Lambda projects more than 1,000 construction jobs during development and more than 225 full-time operations, technical and support roles. It plans to work with local partners to identify opportunities for county residents and contractors, while the development agreement includes local-hiring and contractor preferences.
Power, Water and Community Commitments
Lambda will pay the full cost of the power and grid infrastructure required for the facility through upfront financial commitments that apply even if project plans change, aiming to keep those costs from Alabama Power’s existing customers. Lambda and Alabama Power have signed the White House Ratepayer Protection Pledge, whose five commitments cover new power supply, delivery infrastructure, payment under negotiated rates whether or not the electricity is used, local workforce investment, and grid and community resilience.
For cooling, Lambda says closed-loop technology significantly reduces water use compared with traditional data center systems. A planned partnership with N-Drip is intended to help local farmers conserve water and return at least as much water as the facility uses. The county standards prioritize non-water or closed-loop cooling, cap use at 100,000 gallons per day including cooling-system fill days, and require company-funded water upgrades with excess capacity for the utility.
The design also includes setbacks, buffers, noise-reduction measures, DarkSky lighting and sight-line modeling to guide building placement and limit effects on neighboring properties.
Lambda and Cloverleaf are investing $10 million through a community benefits commitment with the Central Alabama Community Foundation. The schedule allocates $1 million initially, $4 million after execution and regulatory approval of the electric-service contract, and $5 million over five years after construction starts.
Regulatory approval, final design and delivery against those commitments form the project’s central test. The county framework is approved, but the construction timetable remains contingent, and the later community payments depend on electric-service and construction milestones.
