Entergy Corporation has entered into a significant partnership with Meta to power a new state-of-the-art data center in Richland Parish, Louisiana. This collaboration is set to drive long-term economic growth, create thousands of jobs, and lower costs for customers across the state. The centerpiece of this initiative is the construction of the Smalling Substation, entirely funded by Meta, which will play a crucial role in delivering electricity to the $10 billion, 4-million-square-foot facility. This project, a major private investment in Louisiana, is part of Entergy Louisiana's broader efforts to modernize its electric system and attract major economic development opportunities. At the peak of construction, the project is expected to employ around 6,000 workers, significantly boosting the local economy and setting the stage for future development in the region.
