Another large computing complex will expand capacity for training and running models, although the project still has to clear approvals and be built.
Lambda and Cloverleaf Infrastructure plan to build the Red Clay Technology Center Campus in Lowndes County. Construction is scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2027 and take up to five years, creating more than 1,000 construction jobs and over 225 permanent positions. Lambda promises to pay the full cost of electricity and grid infrastructure for the facility, including upfront commitments that apply if plans change, so costs are not shifted to existing Alabama Power customers. A closed-loop cooling system is planned to reduce water use, while the power supply project requires regulatory approval.
