Data Centers

The Show-me-State history in information technology dates back to the late 1800's when companies like the Missouri and Kansas Telephone Company, now ATT, were founded. Fast forward to today, all MasterCard transactions pass through our territory and so much more. Being able to transmit data and information has always been a part of our framework.

Powering growth through business expansion

Accenture Federal Services announced plans last month to open an advanced technology center in St. Louis, adding 1,400 jobs to the region over the next five years. The expansion will offer custom digital, cloud, automation, artificial intelligence and cyber solutions to federal government agencies. Ameren Missouri's team was instrumental in bringing the project to fruition. A quote from Steve Johnson, president and CEO of AllianceSTL, highlights how business partnerships, including our role as a trusted and reliable energy provider, helped close the deal. "We worked in close collaboration throughout this process with our great partners at the St. Louis Economic Development Partnership, the Missouri Partnership, the Missouri Department of Economic Development, and Ameren Missouri.
