Synopsis

The Uttar Pradesh government has signed an MOU with AM Green Group to set up a 1 gigawatt data centre in Greater Noida with an investment of USD 25 billion. The project, announced at the World Economic Forum in Davos, will be developed in phases, with the first phase starting in 2028 and full capacity targeted by 2030. The carbon-free facility will house around 5 lakh chipsets and support AI, high-performance computing, global hyperscalers, and Indian developers.

The Uttar Pradesh government has signed a memorandum of understanding with AM Green Group to set up a large-scale data centre with a planned capacity of 1 gigawatt in Greater Noida. The agreement was signed on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, according to an official statement issued by the state government.


Under the proposed plan, AM Green Group will invest USD 25 billion in the project, making it one of the largest single investments announced in India's data centre segment so far. The state government said the project is aligned with its broader strategy to position Uttar Pradesh as a major hub for data centres and artificial intelligence-driven infrastructure.

The AI infrastructure hub will be developed in phases. The first phase of construction is scheduled to begin in 2028, while the company has set a target to scale operations to the full 1 gigawatt capacity by 2030. Once operational, the facility is expected to significantly strengthen India's high-performance computing capabilities.

As per the project details, the data centre will house around 5 lakh advanced chipsets. These installations are expected to support large-scale AI workloads and high-performance computing applications. The facility is designed to cater to global hyperscalers, advanced research laboratories, enterprises, and domestic AI initiatives.

The centre will run on carbon-free energy, a move aimed at building sustainable digital infrastructure. In addition to serving international clients, the project will also offer chipset access to Indian developers, enabling faster development and deployment of AI solutions within the country.

The state government said the investment is likely to attract substantial foreign direct investment into the region and create a strong ecosystem around digital infrastructure in western Uttar Pradesh. Officials believe the project will also contribute to employment generation and allied industries linked to data centres and clean energy.

Commenting on the development, AM Green Group Chairman Anil Chalamalasetty said the company views AI as an integral part of everyday life and future economic growth. He stated that the group's move into the AI full-stack ecosystem is an extension of its technology-first approach, aimed at delivering end-to-end solutions across industries.

AM Green Group President Mahesh Kolli said the support extended by the Uttar Pradesh government has played a crucial role in taking the project forward. He added that by combining 1 gigawatt of computing capacity with round-the-clock green power solutions, the group is working towards building a sustainable and scalable model for global AI infrastructure, with strong backing from the state.
