Construction on Facebook’s Mesa Data Center has begun in Mesa’s Elliot Road Tech Corridor. The project aims to serve as a model of energy efficiency and will be supported by 100% renewable energy from new solar energy plants, apply for LEED Gold certification, and receive credits for water restoration efforts. Rosendin, the nation’s largest employee-owned electrical contracting company with a regional office in Tempe, has been selected as the electrical contractor for the project and expects to hire 500 people, including skilled electrical workers, prefabrication warehouse staff, BIM (computer modelers), estimators, project managers and office staff.
