Compass Datacenters has made a one-time $5 million gift to Meridian Public School District in Mississippi, which serves about 4,400 students. The money will go to teacher pay, support-staff compensation and other district priorities, at the request of Mayor Percy Bland. It follows Compass's MEI Data Center Pathway Program with Meridian Community College and a job fair tied to its Meridian campus.
Prime Data Centers, a hyperscale data center developer based in Dallas, has signed the voluntary Ratepayer Protection Pledge launched in March 2026. It commits to pay for new power supply, grid upgrades and dedicated rate structures for its U.S. campuses rather than pass costs to local customers, and to hire locally and coordinate with grid operators. The pledge's signatories represent about 80% of U.S. electricity delivered.
Equinix, through its Equinix Europe 2 Financing Corporation LLC unit, issued €2.5 billion of green senior notes in four tranches, guaranteed by Equinix, Inc. The blended effective rate is 4.82% after hedges, and the offering closed on 9 November 2026. It is the company's largest green notes issue to date, taking its total green bonds above US$12 billion. Proceeds will fund eligible projects under its updated Green Finance Framework.
