Google's first AI hub in India: a gigawatt-scale data center development near Visakhapatnam (Vizag), Andhra Pradesh, announced in October 2025 as part of a roughly $15 billion, five-year (2026-2030) investment that also covers new energy, transmission and a subsea cable gateway. Reports describe three campuses with combined capacity of 1 GW on about 600 acres at Tarluvada, Adavivaram and Rambilli, with Raiden Infotech India implementing the project with Adani Infra. Google is working with AdaniConneX and Nxtra by Airtel on the facility. Google broke ground on 28 April 2026; facilities are targeted to be operational by July 2028.
