“This is the largest AI hub that we are going to be investing in anywhere in the world outside of the US,’ said Thomas Kurian, CEO of Google Cloud, during the signing ceremony in Andhra Pradesh,

Google's partners in the project include AdaniConneX, a joint venture between Adani Enterprises and US-based EdgeCon-nX, and Bharti Airtel, India’s second-largest telecom operator. ‘The facility's 1-gigawatt (GW) capacity will consume nearly half of Mumbai’ annual electricity usage, with power supplied from renewable energy sources developed by Adani.

Gautam Adani, Chairman of the Adani Group, described the project as “a monumental day for India,’ noting that the infrastructure will house advanced TPU and GPU computing clusters required for deep learning, neural network training, and large-scale Al model deployment. “We are honoured to be building the engine to power India’s AI revolution,” he said in a post on X.
