Beacon Data Centers Mobile County Campus
Beacon Data Centers. Filed.
Beacon Data Centers plans a 6 to 8 billion dollar data center on about 650 acres along US 43 in the Calvert community north of Mount Vernon, with construction expected to begin in fall 2026. A July 2026 community meeting drew residents demanding binding commitments on noise, water and land impacts; county commissioners say they cannot block it.
