`Facebook announces Fort Worth Data Center expansion
`FWBP Sta
`December 8, 2020
`Facebook announced Dec. 8 that it is expanding its Fort Worth Data Center by approximately 170,000 square feet. Construction
`is starting now and is anticipated to continue through 2022.
`This new addition will be part of the company’s global data center infrastructure and will serve as what the company calls “cold
`storage,” Facebook said in a news release.
`It will operate similarly to the rest of the data center but will store posts and photos that are older or accessed less frequently. It
`is designed to preserve these memories in a sustainable and e cient way with servers that are powered on as needed, the
`company said.
`Facebook said it has cold storage facilities at select data centers and Fort Worth has been a great location for the data center,
`which helped make the decision to add to the facility.
`Since Facebook broke ground in 2015, construction has been continuous at the Fort Worth site, which had more than 1,200
`construction workers on site at peak.
`Once completed, the more than 2.6 million square feet campus will represent an investment of more than $1.5 billion. More than
`150 people work at the data center, Facebook said. The center is LEED Gold certi ed and supported by 100% renewable energy
`from Texas.
`“Thank you to the City of Fort Worth, Tarrant County, the AllianceTexas Community and all of our partners for helping us
`continue to grow our presence in the area. We look forward to continuing to work together,” Facebook said in the
`announcement.

`Under the hood: Facebook’s cold storage system – Facebook EngineeringTwo billion photos are shared daily on Facebook
`services. Many of these photos are important memories for the people on Facebook and it’s our challenge to ensure we
`can preserve those memories as long as people want us to in a way that’s as sustainable and e cient as possible. As the
