Louisiana Hands Meta a Tax Break and Power for Its Biggest Data Center

Meta, previously known as Facebook, has been granted a significant tax break and access to additional power in Louisiana for its largest data center in the state.

The tax break includes exemptions from property taxes and sales taxes on equipment purchases, which is expected to save the tech giant millions of dollars.

In addition to the tax incentives, Meta will also have access to additional power supply to support the energy-intensive operations of its data center.

The data center, located in Louisiana, is expected to create hundreds of jobs and boost the local economy.

This move comes as part of Louisiana’s efforts to attract and retain tech companies in the state, positioning itself as a hub for data centers and tech innovation.

State officials hope that the tax break and power supply agreement will encourage Meta to further invest in Louisiana and contribute to its economic growth.

Meta’s data center is critical to the company’s infrastructure and plays a key role in supporting its global operations.

With this tax break and power agreement, Meta can expand its data center operations in Louisiana and continue to scale its services and reach more users worldwide.

The partnership between Meta and Louisiana highlights the growing importance of data centers in the digital economy and the need for supportive policies to attract tech companies.
