Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu has laid the foundation stone for a $15 billion Google Artificial Intelligence data centre near Visakhapatnam, marking a major push to India’s digital infrastructure.
The 1 GW facility, spread across 600 acres in Tarluvada, Adavivaram and Rambilli villages, is expected to be among the country’s largest AI data centres, offering advanced cloud infrastructure and large-scale data storage.
The project is part of Andhra Pradesh’s broader plan to build a multi-gigawatt digital ecosystem of around 6.5 GW, positioning the state as a major data hub.
Adani Group announced a $100 billion investment plan to develop integrated AI infrastructure across renewable energy, power transmission, digital networks, and data centres.
Jeet Adani said the Vizag project reflects a defining moment in India’s digital journey.
