On June 1, Motor City Electric Co. joined Walbridge, project partners, and state leaders for the groundbreaking of the data center campus known as "The Barn" in Saline Township, a $16 billion development and the largest economic investment in Michigan's history.
Developed for Oracle and OpenAI, The Barn is expected to become the largest data center in Michigan and one of the most significant technology infrastructure projects in the country. Motor City Electric Co. is honored to be a key trade partner on this landmark development, contributing to a project that will advance innovation and artificial intelligence.
For nearly 75 years, Motor City Electric Co. has delivered some of Michigan's most important projects. Being part of The Barn continues that tradition and marks the largest project in the company's history.
Representing MCE at the groundbreaking were CEO Dale Wieczorek and Executive Vice President of Operations Pat McCloskey.
We're proud to be part of The Barn and look forward to building the next chapter of Michigan's future.
