ARCO/Murray

ARCO/Murray is the EPC contractor for a 31 MW / 62 MWh Tesla Megapack battery energy storage system at Aligned Data Centers' Hillsboro, Oregon campus. The project is a partnership between Calibrant Energy and Portland General Electric. Construction is underway, with ARCO/Murray handling full design-build responsibilities. The BESS integrates directly into the data center campus to accelerate power delivery independent of grid expansion timelines. GCs, EPC firms, and energy storage vendors should track this model for future data center power infrastructure opportunities.

ARCO/Murray has been awarded a general contractor role for a data center construction project in Hillsboro, Oregon by developer Aligned Data Centers. While specific capacity and contract value figures are not disclosed, this represents an active build in the Portland metro region's established tech corridor. The GC award signals that Aligned Data Centers is moving from planning into active construction phase for this facility. Hillsboro's selection is notable given the market's existing hyperscale presence and established fiber infrastructure, suggesting Aligned is targeting the region's dense cloud and semiconductor computing demand. Vendors in power distribution, cooling systems, and structural steel should expect RFQ activity as the project mobilizes on-site.
